Product Description:
Everything that means anything to you is taken away in seconds. No warning. No explanation. Nothing. AUTUMN: THE CITY is the first sequel to the acclaimed horror novel AUTUMN (now available as a free download from www.theinfected.co.uk). A virulent disease rips across the face of the planet, killing billions of people in less than twenty-four hours. A small group of survivors cower in fear in the desolate remains of a silent city. As the full extent of the devastation caused by the disease is revealed the desperate people fight to keep thousands upon thousands of plague victims at bay and to continue to survive from day to day. They fight to stay alive. The unexpected appearance of a company of soldiers again threatens the survivor's fragile existence. Do they trust this sudden military presence? Will the military bring them hope and answers, or just more fear, pain and destruction? Far more than an ordinary sequel, AUTUMN: THE CITY expands on the nightmare of the first novel and takes the reader closer to discovering what caused the death of billions of people on a single inauspicious September day.

The book is the sequel to David Moody's excellent, deliberately slow-paced Autumn novel which set the stage for his trilogy.
Moody has us follow the patch of several groups of survivors in modern-day England after the outbreak of a terrifyingly fast virus that killed billions of people in seconds, without anybody knowing its origin or its purpose. The group of "countryside" survivors that we got to know in Autumn is featured in this sequel again. It gets back to the City it originally ... Read More

David Moody's take on the old zombie stereotype comes from a very different direction than typical American, Romero style zombie fiction. His story focuses on developing the plot line, and pulling the reader into the characters, not on mindless gore. If you are fan of the genre, or looking for a good horror read - pick this one up. The first story in the series "Autumn" is always offered as a free e-book on his website. That's all it will take to get you hooked.

David Moody, Autumn: The City (Infected Books, 2003)
David Moody's Autumn Quartet continues on with The City, a book that starts out concurrently to Autumn. Don't expect to see your dysfunctional heroes from that book for a while, unfortunately; you've got a new crop of characters to think about here.
This is an ensemble piece, more than the last book was; there can't be said to be any real main character. There's a ragtag band of survivors who start off apart, mostly, but ... Read More

"Autmn:The City" is the second book in the "Autumn" series. You really wouldn't have to read the first to enjoy this book. I starts at the same time as the first just with different characters. I would recommend reading the first though. It gets a little more in depth with the day the world died.
In my review of the first book I talked about the absence of hard-core Zombie gore. These books are not Splatterpunk. They are character driven stories that focus on the humans coping with the end of ... Read More

I was a fan of the first Autumn book so I quickly bought this and the 3rd book Purification. I figured that the first book was basically a setup, a quiet before the real storm. Perhaps my expecations were too high for blood and gore and gruesome deaths because this series really isn't about all of that. Sure, its descriptive when it comes to the decaying zombies and what the world has become. But if you're looking for some Romero-style attacks, gore, killings, this series comes up a little short. ... Read More
