I live in North Carolina and everything around me inspired locations and characters in the Red Plague Trilogy, but here are some things that made me stop and imagine the series in a new way.
A helicopter flying over a NC highway. In the zombie apocalypse, this would be one of the first signs of trouble.Another helicopter searching for the infected.I was driving on I-40 near Raleigh when I spotted smoke in the distance which made me imagine all kinds of apocalypse scenarios.An empty highway in NC surrounded by thick forest, just like in the book. Can you picture Maya and her companions traipsing down the center line?Another NC highway flanked by pine trees.The I-40 near Raleigh, NC.The McDonald’s (near Raleigh, NC) that catches Hunny’s attention.Maya, Pollard & Hunny take over an RV similar to this one at the end of Elixir.Finally, the adorable, real life inspiration for Hunny Green.
