📚 WHAT THE BOOK IS ABOUT

A satirical zombie novel reimagining the Titanic sinking with undead passengers.

Martin combines scientific hubris with romantic folly in this second entry of his trilogy. The scientist’s serum creates a walking dead threat that complicates the voyage. Meanwhile, social climbing and deception drive the human characters toward their doom. The narrative structure places these disparate groups on the same ship, forcing collisions between personal agendas and supernatural catastrophe. The tone remains farcical even as the vessel descends into the Atlantic.
