Dead Island In Book Form!

A few days ago, Bantam announced that it was publishing Dead Island, the official novelisation of Deep Silver’s game. I am all for anything that has to do with this title. Right now there isn’t any word on whether this is going to be a novel based around one of the character’s point of view or a “choose your fate” style book. Mark Morris, author of Dead Island, had this to say:

“Having marveled, like the rest of the world, at the stunning trailer earlier this year, I absolutely leaped at the opportunity to write the official Dead Island tie-in novel. This is a rich, exotic world of well-conceived characters, stunning locations and all-out zombie mayhem. What really attracted me to the project, however, was the fact that behind the nonstop action is a complex and multi-layered plot. I’m hugely excited and massively honored to be a part of the Dead Island phenomenon.”

The book will drop along side the game this September. Be sure to check it out. I know I will!
