This book begins with autobiographical content, then the author becomes observational about how the USA and the world have changed drastically since he was a young boy in the 1950s. After becoming a believer in Jesus (Yehoshua) of Nazareth, as a young adult, the author developed a strong interest in Biblical prophecy and has become a student of end-time prophecy. The Almighty has given the author considerable understanding about eschatology, which is the study of the end days, including the identities of the Antichrist and the false prophet. The Creator has imparted understanding to the writer through understanding of Bible prophecy, related events happening in real time, and also through visions and dreams, and messages deep in the night. This book is not based on guesswork or falsehood, but rather on information directly from God Himself.

Ghosts, drugs, and Rock 'n' Roll. The year is 1997. Chris Mahon is a twenty-something bass player in a series of failed and failing bands, waiting for the big break that seems further out of reach with every day closer to the millennium. When Chris's biological father Bob re-enters his life after a twenty-five year absence, Chris's comfortable but unfulfilling life with his hippie mom Fay is turned upside down...and the ghosts begin to visit. Janis, Kurt, Brian, Freddie, Sid, Johnny...a spectral pantheon of Rock's greatest icons appear; all but one, the one Chris believes sonically replaced Bob's DNA when pregnant Fay danced before the main stage during the final performance at Woodstock. Will the Voodoo Child appear to guide Chris through life's constant revolutions, or is Chris destined to feel like he's living at the bottom of a grave? Hang on, my darlin'!

I see dead people...and so does everyone else, because more and more teenagers who have returned from the grave are converging on the small town of Oakvale, Connecticut, inspired by the words the "voice" of Generation Dead, Tommy Williams, writes on his blog MySoCalledUndeath.com. Tommy's people-Mal, Karen, Sylvia, Takayuki, Tayshawn, Colette, Popeye, Melissa and the gang at the Haunted House-aren't zombies that want to eat your brains or feast on your entrails, they just want to do the same things everyone else does-create, make friends, play sports, have fun, fall in love-live. But not everyone in Oakvale-especially Reverend Mathers and his flock at One Life Ministries-is willing to stand idly by and let them do any of those things. Not when so many members of the community would approve of the undead being "reterminated" and sent back to the graves they worked so hard to climb out of... Generation Dead Book 4: My Best Friends Are Dead contains, for the first time in print: The collected My So-Called Undeath blog Generation Dead: Stitches Three brand new Generation Dead stories, and one new bonus story set in the world of Break My Heart 1,000 Times

From critically acclaimed Generation Dead author Daniel Waters, comes a delectably creepy and suspenseful thriller. Break My Heart 1,000 Times will leave readers with the chills. Or is that a ghost reading over the page? Adapted as the feature film I Still See You starring Bella Thorne.

Karen Desonne is used to pretending to be something she’s not. She’s always passed as a normal, all-American teenager—with her friends, her family, and at school. It cost her the love of her life, and that she’s dead, she’s still passing—this time as alive. Meanwhile, Karen’s dead friends have been fingered in a high-profile murder, causing new anti-zombie regulations that have forced nearly all of Oakvale’s undead into hiding. Karen soon learns that the “murder” was a hoax, staged by Pete Martinsburg and his anti-zombie zealots. Obtaining enough evidence to expose the fraud and prove her friends’ innocence means doing the unthinkable: betraying her love by becoming Pete’s girlfriend. Karen’s only hope is that the enemy won’t realize who she really is—because the consequences could be even worse than death.

GENERATION DEAD Something strange is happening. Teenagers who die aren't staying dead; they're coming back to life. Termed 'living impaired' or 'differently biotic', there are lots of conspiracy theories to explain this new phenomenon. But as their numbers keep on growing, so does the discomfort of the living. When Phoebe falls for Tommy Williams, a newly raised zombie, her best friend and star of the football team, Adam, has conflicting emotions. And when Tommy decides to try out for the football team, it sets off a chain of events that escalates into deadly violence. THE KISS OF LIFE When Adam takes a bullet for Phoebe, it proves everyone right - Adam is in love with her. And now that he's come back to life, Phoebe's presence may be more important than ever. They say that a zombie can come back from death faster if they're loved... and kissed - which means Phoebe has to say goodbye to Tommy Williams, the other zombie in her life.

They say that a zombie can come back from death faster if they're loved... and kissed - which means Phoebe has to say goodbye to Tommy Williams, the other zombie in her life.

But normal has been different since American teenagers started rising from their graves.

Stephenie Meyer meets John Green in this original supernatural romance! Love knows no boundaries . . . even death. Phoebe Kendall is just your typical goth girl with a crush. He's strong and silent . . . and dead. All over the country, a strange phenomenon is occurring. Some teenagers who die aren't staying dead. But when they come back to life, they are no longer the same. Feared and misunderstood, they are doing their best to blend into a society that doesn’t want them. The administration at Oakvale High attempts to be more welcoming of the 'differently biotic'. But the students don’t want to take classes or eat in the cafeteria next to someone who isn’t breathing. And there are no laws that exist to protect the 'living impaired' from the people who want them to disappear—for good. When Phoebe falls for Tommy Williams, the leader of the dead kids, no one can believe it; not her best friend, Margi, and especially not her neighbor, Adam, the star of the football team. Adam has feelings for Phoebe that run much deeper than just friendship; he would do anything for her. But what if protecting Tommy is the one thing that would make her happy?

Poetry. A skunk, a dead jellyfish, fruitfLies--these are some of the landmarks in SKUNK NIGHT SONNETS, whose world mankind is lucky enough to share with the rest of nature. The rural New England outlook may remind readers of Frost, but Daniel Waters brings more wit than flint to the classic 14-line form. Waters's SKUNK NIGHT SONNETS have roots decades deep in the small-town art of slow brooding. "This book approaches you with such civility, speaks with such courtesy, and touches you so deftly that you don't know what it's up to until, the conversation over, you pat your pockets and realize your illusions are missing: nature is not generous, creation not kind, the body not a temple, what you love most neither unique nor enduring, your chosen emblems of purity and power neither powerful nor pure"--Rhina Espaillat.
