Summary

Earth had already been devastated by the Death Generator...
Then the Red Queen meddled with the very laws of Time to advance her evil ambitions. She transmogrified the planet into a world stalked by decaying ghouls and policed by satanic Bulls, their amplifiers meting out the punishing music of Elton John.
Only the Hawklords could save the remnants of Humanity... only the Hawklords could restore the forces of Good.
Their sole ally Elric the Indecisive; their sole weapon their music; they fought to the death with their awesome enemies, the macabre Queens of Deliria...
 
Queens Of Deliria by Michael Butterworth (born 24 April 1947 in Manchester) - based on an idea by Michael Moorcock - was first published in 1977: an echo of New Wave SF, an incomparable psychedelic rock fantasy - and a definitive cult novel!
Queens Of Deliria is published in a new edition by Apex-Verlag, edited by the author (and supplemented by a new introduction written by Rick Evans).
Available since: 08/09/2021.

Contagious (Book One) 
 
During the Second Great Depression, twenty-four-year-old Orissa Penwell is forced to drop out of college. Just when she thinks she couldn’t sink any lower, a virus breaks out across the country, leaving those that are infected crazed, aggressive and very hungry.

When she finds herself a reluctant leader of a group of survivors, she must make a choice: set aside her issues and help the others—or go off alone in search of her own family and friends. 
 
Deathly Contagious (Book Two) 
 
Safely ensconced in a zombie-proof compound, Orissa’s relief is fleeting. Someone she recently let into her life—and her heart—is killed. Hell-bent on revenge, she’ll do whatever it takes to seek vengeance and get even . . . without caring what the risk is for herself. Things quickly go from bad to worse and Orissa finds herself lost and abandoned—and forced to face the living dead on her own. When lies, secrets, and desperation are added to the already harrowing world, Orissa discovers that zombies aren’t the only things to worry about . . .
