Monster Island is the first volume in a trilogy. The second volume, Monster Nation, is also online.

The third volume, Monster Planet, is online, and is slated to be released in print in 2007. A new series, 13 Bullets, was serialized online and will be available from Three River's Press this summer.

Praise For Monster Island

"Excellent...It's got all the stuff a zombie aficionado wants... plus a lot of welcome surprises that add a level of richness to the genre." —Mark Frauenfelder, BoingBoing.net 

"Glorious and grisly... Click over and feast with the undead, you won't be left unsatiated." —Rue Morgue

"...what sets this gleefully apocalyptic first novel apart from the pack is the witty intelligence with which Wellington reinvigorates zombie clichés and the cast of richly developed characters he puts through their paces." — Scifi.com

"An instant horror classic" — BN.com Explorations

If Charles Dickens was a New Yorker who wrote zombie stories, he'd write Monster Island.—Stray Bullets

"'A corking good read' as the back cover blurbs would say, if this thing had a back cover."—Bloghorrea
