The Gods of Women Have Gone Mad is a raw and candid account of the horrors of female genital mutilation, a heartbreaking coming-of-age dystopian story, and a powerful and moving tale of the indomitable spirit of women in the face of immense adversity.
In the culturally rich land of Rolami, where tradition and gods rule, young women face the harrowing practice of circumcision. Lami, the privileged daughter of a prominent chief, has managed to avoid this fate for four seasons. But even her power and determination can't shield her from tradition forever.
When her best friend returns from exile to offer comfort, Lami discovers that the consequences of her culture's cruel rites of passage are even worse than she had imagined. Together with her friends, she must fight to bring revolution to Rolami. But will their changes be for the better or the worse? It all depends on who is telling the story and who is listening...
An epidemic of apocalyptic proportions has swept the globe, causing the dead to rise and feed on the living. In a matter of months, society has crumbled: there is no government, no grocery stores, no mail delivery, no cable TV. In a world ruled by the dead, we are forced to finally begin living.
This volume follows our band of survivors as they set up a permanent camp inside a prison. Relationships change, characters die, and our team of survivors learn there's something far more deadly than zombies out there: each other.

Eric Lloyd discovers the Alliance's corrupt power structure and vows to destroy it. But can one person change the world?
