Year of the Zombie is a collaborative anthology project created by zombie fiction authors David Moody and Wayne Simmons, bringing together a large group of horror writers to contribute standalone stories to a shared zombie apocalypse series. Rich Hawkins’s contribution is The Plague Winter (2016), a story that sits naturally alongside his post-apocalyptic work in The Last Plague.
The series ran from 2015 through 2018, with the individual 2016 stories eventually collected in the Year of the Zombie (2018) omnibus. Contributors across the series include Adam Baker, Iain Rob Wright, Mark Tufo, and others from the British and international horror fiction community. The format — multiple authors, each writing their own version of the apocalypse — gave the series a broader range of approaches to zombie horror than a single-author collection could achieve.
