Carnell’s horror novel No Flesh will be Spared will have Gladiator/Zombie action!

Last Updated on July 23, 2021

A lot of words are being thrown around surrounding Thom Carnell’s (or just Carnell) debut horror novel titled NO FLESH WILL BE SPARED and those words sound very promising. Carnell is attempting to establish a subgenre within the Zombie culture called “Horraction” which awfully sounds a lot like the latest entry from Digital Playground. His attempt will involve the creative fusion of genres that we all love and adore: Horror and Action. Plain and simple. 

Check out the synopsis below if the mixture of Zombie and Gladiators sounds remotely interesting to you: The novel is set in a near future where society has dealt with a global outbreak of the Living Dead and is finally starting to move on. As the world begins to pull itself back together, a new highly lucrative international sport – zombie pit fighting – emerges which, in a very short period of time, manages to surpass all previous sports revenue and attendance records. The World Gladiatorial Federation and The Undead Fight League have grown bigger and more influential than the NFL, NBA, and Major League Baseball combined. From the League’s ratings and their fighters’ popularity, it is apparent that the Living have not quite finished with the Dead. A fighter, Cleese, is recruited and indoctrinated into this violent world where every match could be the fighter’s last. No Flesh Shall Be Spared is the tale of Cleese’s rise to supremacy in the sport and the unanticipated fallout of that involvement. The Dead will fall. Friends will die. The question that arises is that of Cleese’s fate in the ensuing mayhem.

NO FLESH WILL BE SPARED will debut at ZomBCon, Seattle WA on October 29, 2010 where Carnell will do a book reading and be a speaker on panels which include George Romero. He will also be available to sign copies of the book. You can buy tickets for the event or you can Pre-order the book right here!
