The Abandoned was published in 2006 by TokyoPop. In the small town of Buffalora, Georgia, things are going pretty well for Rylie. She works at a nursing home, has her sights set on the beautiful Naomi, and has a good group of friends to hang out with. Then Hurricane Riley blows into town, and when the rain and winds settle, the biggest problem isn’t the amount of physical damage the hurricane has brought. Now everyone over the age of 23 is a flesh-eating zombie, and Rylie and her friends are fighting for their lives. But can they really forestall the never-ending march of a land of zombies?
