ABOUTquote
Post-Apocalyptic action author, hides in Blue Ridge Mountains, enjoys scotch and being a smart a$$. At the start of the pandemic, Edmond Geanta decided to write. Since then, he had published 9 books and still going strong. Recently moved from California to the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina with his wife and their 7 months and already 80lb Akita puppy, Edmond managed to spend his past two years writing fiction between a full time (remote) job and a part time online teaching gig. Edmond\'s writings are laced with medieval history, social experiments, conspiracy theories, global pandemics, and post-apocalyptic events. The action and the character building revolve around the ups and downs of the human spirit and its formidable capacity to adapt to the most extreme situations. He believes in the good of people and their power to overcome adversities. Hopefully, readers will experience the same emotions in the pages of his books.

Crimson Awakening
Updated at Jun 19, 2022, 14:33
In a mad rush to increase profits, a drug company releases a new chemical into the world that promises to keep food fresh in perpetuity. Only that has an adverse reaction on the population. Across the globe people die, then rise as zombies. Was this a diabolical plan carefully constructed by the elite or just an accident? Crimson Awakening is a unique twist on the zombie apocalypse that blends conspiracy theories, history, paranormal, and current events into a surprising story about the struggles of a seemingly ordinary family... But there is nothing ordinary about them... Gabi is a descendant of Vlad the Impaler who carries in her veins the long-forgotten blood traits of Dracula. Her husband, Rey is an Icelandic ex-special forces with more than a little Viking DNA but Eve, their five-year-old daughter, might be the one holding the answer to world salvation. Circumstances grow dire when Gabi is attacked by zombies. Determined to cure his wife, Rey seeks the help of an old virologist friend—Jenkins, now a drunkard, fallen in the gutters of the society. Running out of options, Jenkins decides to give Gabi a blood transfusion from her husband and her daughter. This cocktail mixture of blood now running in Gabi’s veins triggers a radical transformation that results in a series of events not even the most diehard zombie-lover could've dreamt of. Life spirals out of control and a whole new reality opens up for this "ordinary family": Unique powers no human has ever seen plagues (or blesses) the Earth. Is this transformation a curse, or just a part of human evolution?
