Jonathan Maberry’s Dead of Night series is a zombie horror saga that started with the novel Dead of Night in 2011. The story begins in the small town of Stebbins, Pennsylvania, where a bizarre biological agent reanimates the dead. What starts as a contained outbreak quickly spirals out of control. The series includes novels, novellas, and short stories that expand the scope from a single town to a full-blown national crisis.

The seven entries in the series were published between 2011 and 2018. Fall of Night (2014) picks up directly after the events of the first book, while Still of Night (2018) continues the story further. The series also includes tie-ins to Maberry’s Joe Ledger universe through the novella Dark of Night. Maberry writes with a horror fan’s appreciation for the genre, and the Dead of Night books are among his grittiest and most intense works.
