Ronin of the Dead: Book One

A Post-Apocalyptic Zombie Action Series

By: Keith McIntosh

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

The silence is endless. The dead are everywhere. And somewhere in the dark, two strangers are about to find the last thing they expected...each other.

The end of the world wasn’t loud, it was slow, quiet, and absolute. Now, what's left is silence, rot, and the scattered remnants of humanity struggling to find meaning in the ruins.

Kenshiro is a man without a home, a purpose, or even hope, except for one promise: to kill them all. Armed with only a spear, a battered road atlas, and the hard lessons of a life forged in apocalypse, he travels across the abandoned highways of America. Each town he enters is a test. Each zombie he faces, a reminder. Every mile takes him further from who he was, and closer to something far more dangerous.
Elliott is just a boy. Alone on a farm, waiting for parents who may never return, he clings to routine and childhood memories as the world decays around him. But hunger, fear, and time are catching up.

Their paths are destined to cross.

Heart-pounding, emotional, and steeped in atmosphere, Ronin of the Dead blends action, survival horror, and deeply human storytelling into a fresh take on the zombie genre. It’s a haunting journey through a world where the dead walk, but the living carry the heaviest burdens.

Gritty, emotional, and deeply human, Ronin of the Dead is a thrilling post-apocalyptic journey that blends heart-stopping action with quiet moments of reflection. For fans of The Walking Dead, The Last of Us, and The Road, this is not just a zombie story, it’s a story about what’s worth surviving for.
