Diana Rowland has lived her entire life below the Mason-Dixon line. She has worked as a bartender, a blackjack dealer, a pit boss, a street cop, a detective, a computer forensics specialist, a crime scene investigator, and a morgue assistant, which means that she's seen more than her share of what humans can do to each other and to themselves. She won the marksmanship award in her Police Academy class, has a black belt in Hapkido, and has handled numerous dead bodies in various states of decomposition. She presently lives in southern Louisiana with her husband and her daughter where she is deeply grateful for the existence of air conditioning. A master of urban fantasy, she's the author of the Demon series and the White Trash Zombie series. She can be contacted via her website, www.dianarowland.com, or on Twitter at twitter.com/dianarowland.
Praise for the White Trash Zombie series:
"Rowland is a hilarious writer, and her White Trash Zombie
series shines in a crowded genre." --USA Today "An
incredibly fun series, and a breath of fresh air in an increasingly
crowded field.... While there's no denying that the basic
premise is fascinating and entertaining, the real draw here is
Angel's personal journey of growth and self-discovery." --Tor.com
"Uber-talented Rowland takes a break from her Demon series to
produce a wonderful story with a zombie heroine who is endearing
and engaging. This unique twist on a coming-of-age story explores a
young woman's journey toward self-acceptance in the face of long
odds. Throw in the need for brains and a nasty serial killer and
presto--you have the recipe for a terrific read!" --RT Book
Reviews "An intriguing mystery and a hilarious mix of the
horrific and mundane aspects of zombie life open a promising
new series from Rowland.... Humor and gore are balanced by
surprisingly touching moments as Angel tries to turn her (un)life
around." --Publishers Weekly
"Rowland's delightful novel jumps genre lines with a little
something for everyone--mystery, horror, humor, and even a
smattering of romance. Not to be missed--all that's required is
a high tolerance for gray matter. For true zombiephiles, of course,
that's a no brainer." --Library Journal "Blending very mild
horror, humor and mystery, I was hooked from the start. Both
urban fantasy and zombie fans will enjoy this highly entertaining
novel. Full of suspense, drama, and several surprising twists,
this is one zombie story I couldn't get enough of." --Sci Fi
Chick
"Angel will make you laugh out loud, and she will also make you
come close to losing your lunch. After all, these are creatures
that suck down pureed brains for a pick-me-up.... Angel is a
distinct character, and she has grown through the series."
--Kings River Life Magazine "Equally gross and heartwarming,
disgusting and riveting, My Life as a White Trash Zombie is a
clever read. If you like to see a flawed heroine pull herself back
up, and can handle visceral imagery, it's a brilliant book. Fans of
Carolyn Crane, Stacia Kane and Allison Pang will dig on this one.
Big time." --Vampirebookclub.net
