Jonathan West has a bit of a problem: he lives in Buffalo. And even worse: the internet’s down. Still worse: he’s out of coffee. But the worst thing of all: his wife is visiting family in California when 99% of the world’s population is ravaged by a preposterously cliché zombie virus!! Finding himself immune, and ginned up with the notion of being the book's titular hero, Jonathan and his dog embark on an epic adventure across the US of A in this heartbreaking and tear-jerking comedic-action-adventure-pseudo-horror-drama guaranteed to break your heart and jerk your tears in all the right ways. Friendship, responsibility, conspiracy, and of course, plenty of violence await our hero, but can he survive the 2,600-mile trek full of bad luck, bad people, and horribly bad jokes? Well, probably. I mean, in today’s world, everything’s a damn trilogy… Travis J Downey has been called an analyst, a teller, a bartender, a landscaper, a grump, grouch, and curmudgeon, a math guy, a movie aficionado, a ridiculously loyal best friend, a generous lover, and an incredible father. He hails from the rustbelt where the chicken wings are best served hot with copious amounts of blue cheese, the best beer are fine Canadian pilsner lagers, and the air quality is just bad enough to give you constant post-nasal drip. He lives in a modest two-story colonial with his far-more-attractive-than-he wife, two amazingly amazing sons, and an overweight dog with a glaring underbite. He works full time behind a desk, where he regularly stares out the window wishing he had made different career choices. In his spare time, he pretends to be an actual author while juggling no less than fourteen other hobbies, all while trying to maintain the civility in his chaotic, toddler-ridden house. He's also a Gemini.
