When fifth-grader Nathan Abercrombie accidentally gets doused with an experimental serum, he becomes a half-dead zombie - and discovers that being half-dead isn't all bad. Since he doesn't need any sleep, he can stay up all night and play video games. He doesn't feel any pain, so there's no need to worry about Rodney the bully anymore. Still, Nathan would rather be human. Will he find a cure? Or will Nathan be half-dead forever? My Rotten Life is only the first instalment of Nathan Abercrombie's hilarious adventures. In the second book, Nathan is recruited by B.U.M. - the Bureau of Useful Misadventures to become the world's first zombie spy. Sure to appeal to the millions of young, readers who love David Lubar's Weenies stories, My Rotten Life is lurching to a store near you, just in time for Halloween.
