Zombies Can't Swim ... is a collection of stories written by Colin M. Drysdale whose debut novel, For Those In Peril On The Sea, was released in 2013 to much acclaim. In this anthology, he explores a variety of zombie and post-apocalyptic related themes in tales ranging from ones short enough to fit in a Twitter posting, through flash fiction to full length short stories. They take their inspiration from subjects as disparate as the real life mystery of Flannan Isle through dilemmas you may face in a zombie apocalypse to why you shouldn't try waiting up for Santa Claus.

As a marine biologist by training, it's perhaps unsurprising that several of Colin M. Drysdale's tales link traditional zombie stories and the sea to provide a new and unusual take on how to survive in the world of the undead.

Note: All but one of the stories included in this anthology (The Black Heart Of The Sea) have previously been published on the author's blog.
