ABOUT 100 DAYS OF DEATH (http://www.100DaysOfDeath.com)

100 Days of Death follows a man and his dog on a journey as an apocalyptic virus sweeps across the planet, destroying humanity in a few short months. Though he has lived most of his life as a loner, the narrator of the story suddenly finds himself the head of a misfit surrogate family, and amidst the chaos, he finds a connection and a bond with others he'd never known before The Fall. Our hero and his companions witness, all too close, humanity's needs and twisted desires as the world tumbles deeper into darkness. To top it off, The Dead have risen to consume what is left of mankind. Some days are worse than others.
