Pride and Prejudice and Zombies publisher Quirk Books has acquired a new zombie property, Night of the Living Trekkies by Kevin David Anderson. The novel follows an undead horde unleashed at a Star Trek convention. Set phasers to BRAAAAINS...


In this "Galaxy Quest meets Dawn of the Dead" hybrid, a group of unlucky Trek fans must defend themselves against legions of the living dead. According to Quirk Books' associate publisher Jason Rekulak:

I've always felt that a giant convention of fanboys (like the San Diego Comic Con) would be a delightful setting for some kind of genre fiction: mystery, romance, horror, something. Then the manuscript for NIGHT OF THE LIVING TREKKIES landed on my desk, and I knew I had my book.
