"After: First Light"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Zapheads = New Zombies?
[They don't eat you, they're just really violent... they only eat your corpse apparently after they get really hungry ('cause they'll eat anything) -- but the violence comes first.]
So, you have the power outages (Mad Max style) PLUS the "neo-zombie" outbreak... all caused by solar flares.
If this idea ever takes off, we'll never hear the end of it in movies, shows, books and games... ever.

Anyway, it's free on "Nook" devices, I think. It's not a bad novel, overall. I enjoyed it, and I usually really dislike
anything involving zombies.
