Book Synopsis
THE WORLD IS DEAD!
Two months ago, billions of people were killed by a deadly germ. Days later, they rose up again in massive numbers. Since then, cities worldwide have become rat-infested, germ-filled hellholes, ruled by the living dead.
WELCOME TO LONDON
A group of survivors are trapped in the rotting heart of the capital, hopelessly outnumbered. They've heard rumours of a safe haven to the north - a self-sufficient community where people can rebuild their devastated lives - but the decaying ruins of London are vast and sprawling, and they're going to need an army to get away from this place.
There are other people here, waiting in the shadows. Can enough of them band together to make a difference, or has the country - maybe even the entire world - already been lost to the undead?
The first book in a standalone trilogy set in the nightmare world of David Moody's international best-selling AUTUMN series - the original epic British zombie saga.

Review Quotes
"Autumn: Dawn is an unabated, unforgiving onslaught of intensity that takes aim at both the light and dark side of humanity. Like a punch to the gut, it knocks the wind out of you on the opening page and keeps you gasping for air until the very end."-BookNest
"For anyone who may have been concerned about what new ideas a new Autumn novel could possibly contain there is no need to worry. Heading back into this world was like putting on a favourite comfortable jumper. I loved almost every single word of this novel, it was a triumphant return to the rotting world of Autumn and I cannot wait to see where the story heads next. 10/10"--The Rotting Zombie
"David Moody's AUTUMN: DAWN breathes new life into my favourite undead series. Moody brings his trademark approach to a zombie world: interesting and realistic characters, organic conflict, and always, always, the dramatic and horrifying struggle to survive in a world overrun by the dead." --Craig DiLouie, author of THE CHILDREN OF RED PEAK
"Autumn: Dawn is an instant classic of the zombie genre, a superb novel that demands to be read by anyone with an interest in zombie fiction, or high-quality horror fiction in general; and I cannot wait to see what Moody brings to this setting with the next book in this new series." -The Sci-Fi and Fantasy Reviewer
