We are back with Nick Clausen and Dead Meat: Day 2. Dan is my favorite character, though Nick didn’t plan for him to play such a big part. Sometimes the characters speak and will not be denied.
There are two covers. Both are great, but I love the first one below. There is something about eyes that speak to me…silently. Look deeply. What do you see? Which do you like best?
MY REVIEW
Zombies. A missing girl, Jennie Nygaard. A bloody bite.
Selena, a young girl with big courage.
Allen, a cop who saw the truth.
Dan, my favorite character and brother of Jennie, knows what’s happening.
Nick Clausen gives us lots of gruesome violence and tons of action.
There’s a moment in time when in could have been stopped…but what’s the fun in that?
The saying about courage overcoming fear is pertinent to Dan. Does the world rest on his shoulders and his refusal to quit?
Nick Clausen does not hesitate to kill off his characters, regardless of how good they are, so be careful who you choose as your favorite.
I voluntarily reviewed a free copy of Dead Meat: Day 2 by Nick Clausen.
GOODREADS BLURB
The dead have awakened.
Driven by insatiable hunger.
In eternal search of fresh meat.
The infection spreads like the plague.
Nothing stands between the undead and humanity.
Is it too late to save the world from disaster?
Day 2 follows the second day in the story of Dead Meat.
ABOUT NICK CLAUSEN
Born 1988 in North Jutland, where I still live with my wife, who also happened to be my earliest childhood girlfriend. From 2017 I have lived as a full-time writer. Up until then, I had different jobs beside the writing. I have been studying as a carpenter for three years, and have also read two years of psychology at Aalborg University. It turned out that the writing had a much more powerful pull on me.
I decided early on that I would be an author when I grew up. In fact, the decision came to me already when I read my first book, Snevampyren by Dennis Jürgensen. My first “real” stories I wrote at 14-15 years of age. They were rejected by the publisher, but still got praise. There were some years when I was busy with being a teenager and trying to get an education before I suddenly remembered that I should be an author.
That day I made a promise to write 1,000 words a day until I got a book published. I sat down and started writing. I continued to write every single day for a year and a half. I sent the finished manuscripts to different publishers, and the rejections piled up. Twelve of them by the end. But each time I could feel it was a little bit better. The criticism became more positive. The thirteenth story was called Tidevandet, and it was adopted by the publisher and came out a year later.
I have always enjoyed writing, although in the beginning I put a lot of pressure on myself. My approach to the process has become much more free over the years. For example, I no longer plan my stories. That way, I feel that I’m experiencing the story while writing it and the characters feel like real people. I do not know where the ideas come from, but I’ve never had trouble finding them.

Zombies make for a fun book.:-) I like the first cover, too. I think the eye is creepy and pretty at the same time, but I don’t know that I see anything in it . . . just that it ain’t healthy!
lol something about eyes on covers really creeps me out. i love it
Yes I really like that first cover. I like the eye and the use of colour!

This sounds like a fun zombie series. I’ve seen them featured on several blogs now.
