Following the mantra "Zombies Are People, Too", Zaphod Zombie is the story of a young man -- who just so happens to be undead -- simply trying to survive life, death, sex, friendships, and everything in between.
Most people think of zombies as mindless monsters, shambling their way to the nearest available brain. Zaphod would beg to differ. Hell, he doesn't even LIKE brains. Ever since he joined the ranks of the undead, Zaphod has been having a hard time fitting in. After getting fired from his job, kicked out of the motel he was staying at, and facing prejudice and racism everywhere he turns, Zaphod finally catches a break when he finds a room to rent on craigslist. |

"I love Zaphod's character. He is a cyncial zombie, and reading the book from his point of view makes it hilarious. This book really seems to poke fun at today's society--from the teens of today to the way the world works--and I found it very enjoyable."
-- Anonymous "This book has everything I could have asked for in a story, zombies, hot Alien chick, strained father/son relationship, porn, rock and roll and much more!!!"

"Really awesome story from the undeads perspective. I started reading this and couldnt put it down."
-- Anonymous "Zaphod Zombie delivers a good bout of sarcastic humor and, dare I say, inspiration? After all, if peering into the life of a Zombie doesn't make you feel better about yourself, then maybe you should check your pulse."

"If Zaphod was real and he was my friend I would be his donor when I died."

"This is a book for anyone who's been discriminated against [...] Somehow in 176 pages, Krumbine manages to evolve characters, solve problems, and touch on some deep issues of life, death, living, and letting go. Zaphod teaches us that whether life is too short, or unlife is too long, grudges should not be kept, and sometimes they can eat at you from the inside and obscure your view of the world making it harder to enjoy the time we're given."

Known on YouTube for shows such as Webcams, The Beanie Boy Show and Krumbine's Brain, this bloke is a prolific creative mind. [...] I came into this book being familiar with Jordan's writing, and was worried that it was going to end up being flimsy in comparison. However, those worries were completely unwarranted. Although a lot seems to happen in these few pages, but it doesn't feel in the slightest bit rushed. The fact that it's written in first person, from Zaphod's perspective, i think allows more to happen in less time because it comes across almost as a diary, with Zaphod recounting the days events. The flow from one situation to the next works excellently, too, with nothing appearing completely out of the blue, or a character suddenly acting a particular way to get the story to point where the author wanted it to go. The one time that it seemed like a character was shoe-horned in for the novelty factor, ended up working well too. The flow of the story as a whole worked, in my opinion, very well. The characters were believable as people, with the dialogue being natural, funny where it was intended, and at times, really quite deep. The end of this book, i applause, because Krumbine managed to do something that when i thought about it afterward, is really quite remarkable. He managed to tie up all the important loose ends, AND leave the story virtually on a cliff hanger. Read this book if you want a complete story, but equally so, you'll be left wanting more without feeling cheated. Go buy this book.
