About this ebook
This isn't a joy ride down the rabbit hole. It may be written in nonsense but it’s all business. Forget chasing the white rabbit, Alice is trying to survive and not just against zombies. While she’s running for her life, the last thing she’s worried about is how she gets home as long as she can get home in one piece.. The odds are stacked against her. Are her friends enemies and who can she trust? Are the people trying to save her simply out to ensure their own goals?
Welcome to the introduction to the Alice Zombie Series. This series is a short work series of ebooks based upon the novel Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. While not simply a rewrite, the overall tone of the book attempts to adhere to the spirit in which the original work was published. The Alice Zombie Series is planned to encompass three ebooks which will then be compiled into one final ebook.
This particular series details the journey of a young, but not quite so young, Alice as she encounters a myriad of strange occurrences counter to her upbringing which challenge her ideologies. Whereas this would normally take place during a marvelous trip into fantasy land, this particular journey includes voracious zombies.
Lewis Carroll originally penned and delivered as a gift a predecessor of what would become the iconic Alice under a different title, namely, Alice’s Adventures Underground. On the timeline of Alice events, this ebook occurs prior to the revised version which was distributed to the public. Since the content for Lewis Carroll’s work is similar, great liberty was taken with this series of short works in order to differentiate between Alice underground and Alice in Wonderland.
*Parental Note*
While this ebook is based off of the Alice genre, it is not intended for adolescent readers. This ebook does not contain nudity or profanity. It does; however, relate the exploits of a teenage Alice and as such may contain discussions of mature subject matter.

Tween friendly. Must be read in Landscape. Print is small. This book is very much like Pride, Predjudice, and Zombies. It's worded in the English of the 1800's, which makes it difficult to read and confusing. Otherwise, the book flows smoothly and has enough to stay interesting. I would have loved for it to have been written using today's English. It would have made the book so much better, as the randomness and wording of some of Alice's sentences distract from the feel. The setting is futuristic, and there are customs that are mentioned and not explained, and terms like ploam and card pigs that are not clearly explained until later in the book. There is only a brief encounter with zombies and no description other than the smell, blood, and detached arm. The story is too short, ending with the meeting of the Chesire Cat. There are a few spelling errors, such as hear instead of here.

Unfortunately I can't review the story quality as the book is unreadable on a my tablet. The font is miniscule and can't be adjusted.
