Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
In the tradition of Bored of the Rings, O.J.'s Legal Pad, and The Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook, this book is a dead-on parody of wilderness and survival manuals like the SAS guides that sell millions of copies, and it will appeal as much to readers of The Onion as it will to fans of science fiction novels and horror films. Max Brooks captures the tone of these publications with perfect pitch, lacing his life-or-death advice with sarcastic, ironic, and very funny comments about the relentless power and persistence of zombies and the vulnerability of ordinary humans.

Max Brooks is a brilliantly funny writer, and this book proves just that. Laid out in an almost matter-of-fact, investigative reporting fashion, the book clearly shows that the author knows far more about zombies (and how to fight against them) than any one person has the right to know. The simple, step-by-step instructions, including the "example" journal entry at the end makes it utterly believable--which is where the true humor of this off-beat piece lies. Now if you don't mind, I gotta go oil my boom stick...
