About the Author
Lee Emerick born July 1982, is an author based in Staffordshire, England.

Keenly interested in the genres of Sci-Fi and Horror, Lee is looking to expand his horizons and move into the Crime/thriller genre with his latest work ‘The Mind of a Killer’.
Background
Born in Harlow, Essex, Lee moved to Leek, Staffordshire at the age of 4.
Schooled at Leek High School then subsequently Leek College Lee has been in continuous professional employment since then.
After several failed attempts at writing a book, Lee finally succeeded in 2009 when he released Super Nova. A book of the Sci-Fi genre, Lee took the inspiration from his favourite films and based the characters entirely on his friends.
Please with the outcome of Super Nova, a sequel was soon to follow called Mechanical Jihad. Influenced by the Dune series Lee had so enjoyed it was written as a tribute to the series as well as to compliment Super Nova.
Moving on from Sci-Fi, Lee entered the Horror genre with Extinction Theory in 2010. Please with the outcome and popularity with the book Lee then decided to take Horror a step further and enter the Post Apocalyptic sub genre of Horror.
After publishing 20 Years After The Zombie Apocalypse and the success of strong sales and positive reviews, Lee quickly followed it with the sequel Survival After The Zombie Apocalypse which has also been very successful.
Looking to explore other genres Lee is currently writing a book by the name of The Mind of a Killer which will be an entry into the Crime/Thriller genre. Also in the pipeline is a return to Sci-Fi but of a Post-Apocalyptic sub genre currently titled Solar Apocalypse which will explore the end of earth and the survivors left behind.

Smashwords book reviews by Lee Emerick
- Backyard Zombies
on July 15, 2011
Daft and amateurish but I really enjoyed it! Not usually one for something written in the first person but with the nature of the read, it works really well.
Some points did loose me though such as to whether the character was just thinking about what he would do or whether he was actually doing/going to do it. That said it did make sense eventually.
The title backyard zombies made me laugh, I don't know if it's me or my perverted mind but it conjured up the image of some bizarre zombie based porn type thing. I'm glad that was not the case! Although the main character did seem to becoming obsessed with the lady zombie...
