✦ Synopsis
Praise for The Zona:
"The Zona is a brutal glimpse into a post apocalyptic world that is all too plausible... If you enjoy your apocalyptic fiction gritty and with a hint of the new old-west, The Zona will blow you away."* -- Paul Antony Jones, Author of Extinction Point and Towards Yesterday
"A striking, fierce, powerhouse of a book."* -- Cheryl, Goodreads Reviewer**
"This is what we all fear will happen if we continue to abuse the Earth. Nathan does a phenomenal job of painting the bleakest environment we could face and showing us the path we are on. He can use words to paint such a grand picture and leave you astonished at the final act."*-- Albert Robbins III, Amazon reviewer
About the Book:
Welcome to the Arizona Reformed Theocracy, otherwise called THE ZONA. Here the Church rules with power absolute. The laws are simple: all sin is punished swiftly. Preachers enforce the Church's words like old West lawmen.But what happens when a Preacher refuses to kill? What happens when men of honor take a stand against their rulers?
More Praise for The Zona:
"It did not surprise me to learn that Nathan Yocum, author of The Zona, is an award-winning screenwriter. As I was reading this, his debut novel, I could not stop picturing it as a movie. (I will honestly be very surprised if it isn't optioned, especially with the popularity of dystopias generally and the upcoming Hunger Games specifically!)"*-- Taryn, Bookwanderer Reviews**
