Abstract
Eight years ago, an unknown epidemic swept through the world, turning those infected into ravenous cannibals with no sense of self or others. Following the Waves, the government formed camps to protect the survivors, but things aren’t what they seem when ELIAS, the drug company supposedly searching for a cure to the zombie epidemic, attacks Camp Winslow in Colorado, kidnapping the young and healthy but killing everyone else. Why did ELIAS attack Camp Winslow? Where did the zombies come from? The World Over follows four different characters—Oliver Marcus, a young soldier on his first mission away from Camp David, River Kingston, a Camp Winslow survivor who infiltrates other Government camps and military bases searching for her disappeared husband, Tyson Hall, a secret operative for New Texas who is searching the world for a Cure, and Zac Stone, a refugee living on Oahu caught up in an ELIAS conspiracy to control the zombie-esk monsters—in their efforts to find answers as they struggle to survive the zombie apocalypse.
