UNDEAD ED AND THE HOWLING MOON
Book ID/图书代码: 04300011B44905
English Summary/英文概要: Forget everything you’ve ever seen or heard about werewolves, zombies and vampires because Ed Bagley’s going to tell you the single most important fact you’ll ever learn: BEING UNDEAD SUCKS ... especially if you’re a kid. On his 13th birthday, Ed Bagley is hit by a truck and killed. But things go from tragic to freaky when Ed wakes in the sewers beneath the town of Mortlake with only a note from his missing left arm to explain that he’s undead: a zombie, a walking corpse whose skin rots and oozes. And as if all this misfortune wasn’t enough, there’s a lunatic killer on the loose in Mortlake ... and only Ed can stop him.
Chinese Summary/中文概要:
任何故事都有一個重大的開端……
我的开端是个悲剧!而且是个奇怪的悲剧!
一輛卡車從艾德身上開過。差點把艾德碾死,可惜的是,他醒了過來,只是變成了一身腐皮的僵屍,從頭到腳的腐皮啊!還有,他的一隻手還掉了下來。不僅如此,他還要把小鎮中的人們從殺人惡魔的魔抓下救出。有趣、愚蠢又精彩。真的適合晚間邊笑邊讀。哈哈!
別想那些狼人、僵屍、吸血鬼的傳說了。艾德•柏格列想要告訴你的是做個半死不死的人,特別是半死不死的小孩可痛苦了。
就在他13歲生日時,艾德•柏格列被卡車撞了,差點死掉。但這個悲劇變得非常奇怪。他醒過來了,但是躺在Mortlake城的下水道裡,他斷掉的左手寫的最後一張便簽就是他是怎麼變成現在這樣的:僵屍!一具行屍走肉,他的皮都腐爛了。
老天似乎覺得這些還不夠,Mortlake還有一個殺手在逃,只有艾德能阻止他。他要如何拯救市民呢?

In the past this imprint was best known for its teen fare. A slow and steady increase in their middle grade offerings, however, has turned it into the kind of place I can report upon. Undead Ed by Rotterly Ghoulstone (how awesome would it be if that was his real name?), illustrated by Nigel Baines is going to be the kind of thing you hand to the Zombiekins fans of the world. It’s middle grade zombie fare, which means horror + comedy. A lot more horror in a way since our hero is a zombie himself. Now middle grade books that involve zombiefication can do it one of several ways. The best known book where the protagonist is undead at this point in time may be David Lubar’s Accidental Zombie books. Yet even those books only turn the hero into half of a zombie. In Undead Ed a kid named Ed is pursued by his own dismembered arm. And as all 1950s bad movies have taught us, murderous hands = a good time. This book also includes a skeleton named Clive. I feel that’s worth noting.
