In this episode of Zombie Book Club, we welcome Catherine Larkin—also known as Author X Zombie—author and illustrator of the Wizards of the Apocalypse series. Catherine shares her journey from crafting stories in high school to building the richly imagined world of Skeletonia, where intelligent zombies don armor, cast spells, and follow the commands of the formidable demon Malice.
We delve into Catherine's creative process, exploring how her dual talents in writing and illustration bring depth to her characters and settings. She discusses the themes of authenticity, friendship, and self-discovery that permeate her work, offering insights into how personal experiences have shaped her storytelling. Join us as we explore a unique fusion of fantasy and horror that challenges genre boundaries and captivates readers of all ages.
