From the publisher of the
New York Times best seller
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, comes a new kind of mash-up…

Night of the
Living Trekkies
Jim Pike was the
world’s biggest
Star Trek fan—until
two tours of duty in Afghanistan destroyed his faith in the human race.
Now he sleepwalks through life as the assistant manager of a small hotel
in downtown Houston.
But when hundreds of Trekkies
arrive in his lobby for a science fiction convention, Jim finds himself
surrounded by costumed Klingons, Vulcans, and Ferengi—plus a strange
virus that transforms its carriers into savage, flesh-eating zombies!
As bloody corpses
stumble to life and the planet teeters on the brink of apocalypse, Jim
must deliver a ragtag crew of fanboys and fangirls to safety. Dressed in
homemade uniforms and armed with prop phasers, their prime directive is
to survive. But how long can they last in the ultimate no-win scenario?
Publishers Weekly
(Starred Review)
"The fusion of
campy zombie-powered storyline, abundant Star Trek trivia, and
hilarious one-liners makes this an utterly unforgettable read that
will be cherished by Trekkies, Trekkers, and horror fans alike."
