 Must Love Zombies September 23, 2008

As someone who loves zombie movies I thought this book was really entertaining.
However, I do wish I had borrowed it from the library instead of buying it. It's not the type of book that I think anyone but the hardcore zombie fan would really enjoy reading more than once. Your millage may vary.
 "Exellent read" September 16, 2008

The Zombie Survival Guide by Max Brooks is amazing. It has humor, but is totally serious the entire length of the book. I feel that if a Zombie Outbreak happens anytime soon I will be better prepared having read mentioned book. A must for Zombie, Horror, and Survival fanatics!!!
I am now prepared September 8, 2008

If you are looking for humor you will not find any jokes in this book, it reads EXACTLY like a survival guide for zombie attacks. The concept alone is where you draw humor.
Just be careful if you take this on a flight, it has pictures of guns and such and I was getting weird looks.

A great book;written in a instructional manual style. Everyone I know who has seen or read the book loves it. The recored attacks throughout history at the end of the book is also entertaining. I also have WW Z and I am waiting for his new book to come out.World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie WarThe Zombie Survival Guide: Recorded Attacks

Ok. even though you might not be able to practically put the skills learned in this book on a resume (unless you are applying at capcom) it is a very well written book. From a tactical stand point, many of the described survival and evasion techniques make sense and are very well thought out. Even if the zombies do not attack, learning the skills listed in the manual will acctually be good for you. Though the more 'practical' skills are not described all the way through, it is still a great read for any zombie fan out there.
