John Kloepfer began his writing -career at five years old with a one-sentence short story: "And then one day the monsters came." The Zombie Chasers is his first novel. He lives in New York City, where he is hard at work on the next adventure of Zack, Rice, and Madison. David DeGrand has been drawing cartoons since he was a kid. When he's not drawing goofy pictures of gross stuff, he plays video games, watches old cartoons and weird movies, and collects toys and books. His biggest goal is to create something his son will find cool someday. He lives with his wife and family in Texas.

Praise for the The Zombie Chasers: "Kloepfer's first is a Zombieland for the middle-school set: funny, off-color and extremely gross. A great pick for the child who thought Diary of a Wimpy Kid just needed more motile corpses." -- Kirkus Reviews "A quick, fun read, loaded with jokes and middle-school sarcasm." -- School Library Journal "If there's an award for the grossest descriptions of zombies, Kloepfer would win it. Preteen boys will love it." -- St. Paul's Pioneer Press Praise for The Zombie Chasers #2: Undead Ahead: "Written with tongue firmly in cheek-and other body parts all over the landscape-this book will appeal to reluctant readers, particularly middle school boys." -- School Library Journal Praise for The Zombie Chasers #3: Sludgment Day: "Fans of Garbage Pail Kid-style gross-outs will have a ball as Zack and his buddies take down "a butt-load of zombies." -- ALA Booklist
