'THE SEVENTH DAY' SF NOVEL
TO BECOME TV SERIES!
In other TV news, 'Deadline' reports that Mexican Televisa is venturing into English language series with an apocalyptic one. They will turn Scott Shepherd's sf novel THE SEVENTH DAY into a ten episode series.
Set seven years after the Strangers decimated the planet it follows
Joad – who is half way around the world and one of the few left unharmed
when most of humanity is obliterated – on his dangerous trek home to
Nemo in the hope his wife waits for him. The journey with companions he
reluctantly gains along the way takes them through a landscape equally
beautiful and haunting, mysterious and magical.
TO WALK INVISIBLE sounds like it will be lots of fun to watch.
