As a zombie, Archibald 'Archie' Greist finds decomposition really gets up people's noses. Zombies Anonymous is a humorous horror novel concerning the life, death and undeath of ordinary bloke Archie. As a member of the sentient undead, he is initially treated with concern. But, as the decomposition process takes hold and the reality of his condition strikes home, he is rejected by family, friends, work colleagues and finds, being dead, has no legal rights. In fact, as a zombie, there's no washing-up to do. Archie forms a support group called Zombies Anonymous to discuss this new state of supernatural existence with other zombies including: The problem of slowly rotting; the predilection of the living to bury you while you're asleep and whether Chanel No. 5 can cover the smell. But, as the number of zombies rise, the living residents of his home-town of Springdale go from curious to hostile. The behaviour of the living horrifies the zombies. This leads Archie to consider going from a convener of a support group to a 'human' rights campaigner.
