As Serious as the Grave by Kiernan Kelly

[reviews_and_ramblings]

Tyler is a zombie. An handsome gay zombie. But in a world where the undeads have gain the right to live among the still living it's not so simple for him to have a social life. Even if he is in better condition than the other corpses, it is always difficult for a dead guy to find someone to bed.

Daniel is the best friend of Tyler. He is gentle and handsome, but he is straight. He still continues to be the best friend, also after the lethal virus who has brought Tyler to death. But one night Tyler sees Daniel with different eyes, like a man and not like a friend and Daniel admits he feels something for Tyler, long before his death.

They make love for an entire weekend but the world outside is mad: some people don't want the undead to live among them and Daniel and Tyler must face an hate, far worse than an homophobic behaviour.

This is a rather brief tale, of love and passion, with a tinge of horror and humor. An original plot that ended in a realistic way: not all could be roses and flowers in the life.
