| "Shadow People: QUICKENING OF THE WICKED
...is a very smart, scary, intense,
emotional story. The horror aspect alone is very well thought out. It's
not a mindless, PG-13 zombie book but rather a very in-depth story. It
does not just tell of horrific zombie killings, but the way the undead
maim when they reach a victim, is not just a bite and you're dead, or
undead for that matter. They are very brutal in the way they take down
their victims. There are scenes in this book that will make you tense,
cringe, widen your eyes, and definitely leave you feeling you just
witnessed it first hand.
It has a very different take on zombie horror. There is much
more to it than that, the characters in this book definitely find that
they're not just up against the living dead. The female characters are
very strong, but not in a jumping through windows, gun blazing, kicking
a zombie thirty feet into the air kind of way, but with believable,
true strength.
One of the key characters in the story is Aeden, who yes, the
girls will love for sure, but as for me being a guy, I found him to be,
well, pretty freaking cool. He's not just an average person trying to
survive like the rest of the people in the carnage, there is for sure,
more than meets the eye with Aeden, and his faithful wolf dog, Gage.
This story has everything I like in a story, from the
apocalyptic zombie horror, action, characters you really care about,
and even a love story but done in good way that being a guy, I did not
find it cheesy or overblown. It's a great new twist on the zombie
concept making you feel the realism in a story with zombies and
supernatural elements, and even making you feel that the way of Aeden,
to be in fact, a possibility."

“Stacy Stephens, who helped Nick Ryder see the light of day, has written an epic, action-packed, zombie, horror, masterpiece. Shadow People: QUICKENING OF THE WICKED is truly something special and it’s like nothing you've ever read before. The story rocks on so many levels. The way the shadows take over people is graphic and sickening but I wanted to read more and more. It was like playing the best parts of a resident evil game, then getting scared sh*tless. When I grow up, I wanna be Aeden! Awesome!"
