Die Apokalypse ist über die Menschheit hereingebrochen, und die Toten machen Jagd auf die Lebenden. Im harten Überlebenskampf zählt nur Stärke oder Gemeinschaft. So wie in der Siedlung Woodbury, wo der Governor ein hartes, aber effizientes Regime errichtet hat. Als sich die junge Lilly Caul gerade noch so nach Woodbury retten kann, glaubt sie zunächst, sie sei im Paradies - bis sie eine furchtbare Entdeckung macht: In diesem Paradies herrscht ein Teufel, und er kennt keine Gnade.

Die Toten sind auferstanden und jagen die Lebenden, nichts und niemand ist vor ihnen sicher, und auf der ganzen Welt regiert das Chaos. Außer in dem kleinen Südstaatenstädtchen Woodbury: Dort regiert der Governor mit eiserner Hand über die wenigen Menschen, die die Apokalypse überlebt haben. Dafür bietet er ihnen Schutz vor den hungrigen Toten.

My name is Gary Rendell. I'm an astronaut. When they asked me as a kid what I wanted to be when I grew up, I said, "astronaut, please!" I dreamed astronaut, I worked astronaut, I studied astronaut. I got lucky; when a probe exploring the Oort Cloud found a strange alien rock and an international team of scientists was put together to go and look at it, I made the draw. I got even luckier. When disaster hit and our team was split up, scattered through the endless cold tunnels, I somehow survived. Now I'm lost, and alone, and scared, and there's something horrible in here. Lucky me.

> Walking is not as well known as Thoreau's other works Walden, The Maine Woods, and Civil Disobedience. But it is a good place to start exploring his writing because it was his last book, in 1862, published by the Atlantic Monthly shortly after his death. It is less well known because it is general, as opposed to singular, in focus. It is his summing up of his thoughts on life: One should saunter through life and take notice; one need not go far.
