The undead in Europe are faster and stronger than anything they’ve encountered, and the survivors here are hungry, and desperate for help.

With the smoking ruins of Portland behind them, our survivors find that they have a new enemy to contend with...other survivors. With the dead hounding them at every step, and humanity struggling to hold onto its civility, the survivors face their greatest challenge yet. At the end of this battle, there will be No More Heroes.
