Them Early Days

Gus Berry is not cut out for the end of the world. The former house painter barely got out of Annapolis while its people turned violent, and everyone he knew or loved is now dead or undead. He has a modern fortress up on a mountain, but he is running short of almost everything: food, booze, weapons, armour, clothes that fit and, above all, toilet paper.

Getting any of it means the one thing he cannot face, driving back down into Annapolis, where the dead roam the streets looking for the living. Winter is coming, and once the snow piles up the roads will close, so Gus has to make his supply runs quickly while holding on to what is left of his sanity.

The second prequel to Keith C. Blackmore's Mountain Man series, following the first prequel, Mountain Man: Prequel. It contains violence and coarse language.
