In 2019, the world was reduced to an apocalyptic hellscape when a zombie virus broke out and swept the globe, devastating the human population and destroying the basic infrastructure that human society relies on. In China, a young omega awakens from a coma with no name, no memories, and no desire to remain in the hands of the alpha soldiers he learns are collecting omegas as a "precious resource" to be used for breeding. Wanting to be an alpha's property even less than he wants to be zombie chow, the young man escapes, preferring to take his chances in a land overrun with undead. He soon meets a group of survivors led by the charismatic army captain Zhou Rong and joins them, hiding his identity as an omega. His new comrades have secrets of their own, however, and Zhou Rong himself has a not-so-secret dislike of omegas. As the two men fight for survival together, the more their attraction grows... but what will happen when their secrets are brought to light?

2. Uzumaki
Kurozu-cho, a small fogbound town on the coast of Japan, is cursed. According to Shuichi Saito, the withdrawn boyfriend of teenager Kirie Goshima, their town is haunted not by a person or being but by a pattern: uzumaki, the spiral, the hypnotic secret shape of the world. It manifests itself in small ways: seashells, ferns, whirlpools in water, whirlwinds in air. And in large ways: the spiral marks on people's bodies, the insane obsessions of Shuichi's father, the voice from the cochlea in your inner ear. As the madness spreads, the inhabitants of Kurouzu-cho are pulled ever deeper, as if into a whirlpool from which there is no return...
