From its seemingly innocuous beginning, The Oasis of Filth is the chronicle of the outbreak of a mysterious disease that ravages mankind. The story is told by a doctor in suburban Maryland who is on the front lines of discovering the disease, but finds himself quickly overwhelmed by a world that collapses into paranoia, fear and loneliness. He makes an unexpected connection to Rosa, a beautiful woman half his age with an inquisitive nature and inherent sense of hope and resourcefulness, and together they go on a sprawling journey across the eastern United States, finding danger, hope, and possibly even the salvation of the world. But their world is fragile, and soon tragedy strikes. The doctor must decide if love lost is reason enough to damn all of mankind, or if hope and salvation have many faces. He meets other survivors, some good, some not, and soon feels that his path, his decisions, are no longer his own to make. Finally, when faced with mounting injuries, both physical and mental, does he have the strength needed in a world where resources are scarce, life is cheap, and more than 60 years have already passed him by? A #1 best seller in Post Apocalyptic fiction and winner of the 2014 Red City Review science fiction and fantasy book of the year award! Reviews "The book sets up a believable and in many ways terrifying world, one which takes the zombie genre in a direction that can actually be called unique..." "While a book about outcasts banding together may seem as overdone a trope as zombie fiction itself, once again I have to assure anyone reading this that the author, Keith Soares, is in all ways a step above those expectations in his ideas and his execution... I don't recommend reading this book; I recommend reading every book this author publishes, as I have no doubt he will continue raising the bar." "Soares paints a frightening, realistic picture of life in a post-apocalyptic world... It’s refreshing to read a book in this vein that allows the reader to explore a protagonist’s anguish without relying on a flat, twenty-something hero." "Quite different from the majority of novels in the zombie apocalypse genre, but in those differences were some truly great decisions by the author in creating a post apocalyptic environment, and mind set, that is unlike any other I have ever read, and I have read literally over a hundred books by now dealing with post apocalyptic worlds." "A realistic zombie virus - great book!" "A zombie trilogy that had me hooked. I found it to be unique among books in the zombie outbreak genre and very plausible. Fast-paced and exciting. I couldn't put it down!"
