Exit Kingdom by Alden Bell
In a world where the undead outnumber the living, Moses Todd roams the post-apocalyptic plains of America. His reprobate brother, Abraham - his only companion - has known little else. Together, they journey because they have to; because they have nowhere to go, and no one to answer to other than themselves. Travelling the bloody wastelands of this ruined world, Moses is looking for a kernel of truth, and a reason to keep going. And a chance encounter presents him with the Vestal Amata, a beguiling and mysterious woman who may hold the key to salvation. But he is not the only one seeking the Vestal. For the Vestal has a gift: a gift that might help save what is left of humanity. And it may take everything he has to free her from the clutches of those who most desire her. Praise for The Reapers Are The Angels: 'An intimate story, in an epic wasteland’ Russell T. Davies, 'A literary/horror mashup that is unsettlingly good’ USA Today, `[Bell's] sentences roll ... moving to the rhythm of the stilled, eerie environment’ New York Times
