Welcome to Purgatory

The beginning of the infection would essentially come to mark the end of civilization as we know it. In this roller coaster of a spine-chiller, our hero is thrown right into the fire and death of the zombie apocalypse and has to figure out how to survive. He joins up with Amber, a woman who is strong and confident along with being incredibly hot. They make their escape from the immediate chaos to go through many gory adventures together before their paths separate. Losing Amber makes him realize that his internal growth is important if he is to survive. As he begins to adapt and learn, he is captured, but eventually he's welcomed into Purgatory, a town decimated by the ongoing apocalypse. A suspenseful, occasionally humorous story that will captivate readers' senses and put them on the edge of their seats...and make them ask themselves what they would do if confronted by a real apocalypse. This is book 1 of a planned series.

About the Author

The youngest of four children, Gerardo Bucio was born and raised in La Jolla, California, in a large communal home. Despite having a fairly large family growing up, many of his days were spent alone. He took refuge from his loneliness by immersing himself in his imagination and in movies and television. Now an adult, he has a child of his own, and his son has become Gerardo's creative muse. Just like Gerardo, his son loves watching creepy TV shows and movies, and his fascination for zombies was what inspired Gerardo to write this story. The rest of the book is modeled after certain events in his own life...with a bit of embellishment. When he's not writing or spending time with his family, you can find Gerardo reading, doing archery and other physical fitness, and cooking. Currently he and his family reside in the San Diego area.
