When a viral outbreak hits Toronto, Denny Collins and his best friend Thom Washington find themselves trapped over 100 km from Denny's home in a town called Pontypool, where his wife and daughter remain. As the streets teem with violence, they must find safety, before finding a way out of the now deadly metropolis. "10 Minutes From Home is taut zombie fiction written at breakneck speed - Bill Howard leads the pack with this commanding book." ~ Tony Burgess, author of Pontypool Changes Everything "Finally a believable zombie saga with well-developed characters you actually care about!" ~ George Mihalka, director of My Bloody Valentine (1981) "Love or Hate Toronto, 10 Minutes from Home is a devilishly detailed takedown of Canada's biggest city." - Jessa Sobczuk - Rue Morgue Magazine "Heartbreaking and soulful, 10 Minutes from Home is one gut-wrenching read I will not forget. This is one meta-cool book!" - John Palisano, author of Nerves "You need to read this book! Bill Howard is an amazing writer and what he has forged here is a zombie lover's must have. George A. Romero himself could not have penned a better zombie tale!" - Brad Mavin - Proo(f) Paranormal "So many things I never saw coming, a definite adrenaline rush while reading! I felt myself reading faster as the pace picked up. This is a book I would read over and over again." - Paul Silliphant - Proo(f) Paranormal "A purely cinematic, heart-pounding and thrilling story." - Susan Curran, Director of Marketing, Anchor Bay Canada
