Cell(zombies)
By Stephen King
It starts of really fast(and gory) and just keeps on going at that pace. If you like zombie-esque things, this book is great. Although they are not tecnically zombies because they never died.
Chronicles of Faerie(fantasy)
By O.R. Melling
I don't know how to describe them so here's a plot summary of the first book in the series Hunters Moon:
16 year old Gwen and her female cousin Findabhair have a deep affection for fantasy. So when Gwen travels from her native Canada to Ireland, where Findabhair lives, they plan to travel to Ireland's many "magical" spots, namely Tara. On the bus driving them to their first destination, they are driven off the road, so Gwen and Fin decide to hitchhike to the nearest destination. The girls are picked up by a little kindly old man who reminds them of a Leprechaun. He drops the girls at the place they were saving for last--Tara. Upon arriving, the cousins decide to sleep in a fairy mound. In the middle of the night, Gwen has a dream that someone is taking Findabhair away. She wakes up screaming to find that the dream has come true. She discovers that the Faerie King, Finvarra, was the mysterious figure who took Findabhair, and that he intends to keep her as his bride. Gwen realises that if she does not rescue her cousin from the fairies, she will stay there forever. Along the way, Gwen receives help from a kindly business man, a female farmer, a wise old woman and her charming grandson, and the right-hand-man to the Faerie King himself!
