“You expect a zombie novel to have brains, but you don't expect it to be this smart. You expect a number of internal organs to be on display, but you don't expect this much heart. MERCY is a kicka** zombie novel, but it's also a thoughtful, moving story about the joy and importance of being human and alive.”
-Seamus Cooper, author of “The Mall of Cthulhu”
“Patterson has taken the zombie-pocalypse story in a fresh new direction, infusing hope and heart into a format that normally only thinks of heart in relation to gory attacks.”

A short amusing blurb from Joshua (sorry it took me so long to get this up...)
He writes:
A little over two years ago, I wrote a zombie novel. I really liked it, and thought there would be a market for it, given the zombie novel boom in general and “World War Z” in particular.
I sent query letters to a lot of agents, and much to my surprise, I generated almost no interest.
Two years later, I find myself bombarded by blog posts from a couple dozen authors that essentially go, “Well, I published it on the Kindle myself, on the cheap, and now I’m making some money.”
And so, I’ve decided to give it a try.
Obviously, books don’t come out in a vacuum, and so I started researching what writers and/or blogs might like the novel I’ve written. At the moment, I’ve got a fantastic author named Seamus Cooper (aka Brendan Halpin) reading the book with an eye towards blurbing it, and my research also has led me to you.
I think that my novel, “Mercy,” is the kind of story you’d like. It’s got zombie action, and crash-landing planes, and island survival, and a cross-country drive in a tank. More than anything, it has heart. Both the physical and emotional versions.
...well... Joshua... I loved it.. And you, my readers will as well.
