The Lakeside Knight of The Walking Dead

His name is Matthew Grimes. He's a twenty-year-old Atlanta police officer.

While on an overseas mission, his father sent back one last message through a fellow soldier: "Aim for the head."

He had no idea what those words meant, not until the city fell, not until the streets were crawling with mindless "infected," and not until he hacked a path to safety with a fourteenth-century knight's sword.

He is the last knight of the Grimes family, and the only person his twelve-year-old cousin Carl can rely on.

In the ruins left by the bombing, he leads his colleagues, neighbors, and strangers in a flight toward Lake Lanier. At its center stands a white castle. Crops can be grown on the lake's surface, and something seems to be hidden beneath its waters.

A raving old man says he is the knight chosen by the Fire Lord, and a group of survivors begins calling him "Lord."

All he wants is to survive and see that little boy grow up safe and sound.

But the apocalypse gives him no choice.
