( )Zombie survival guide is a unique book its not the type of comedey you would find that amazing funny punch line that leaves your stomach churning its more of a serious comedey as if a we were in a zombie apocalepse a slow but very amuzing book 5 Stars This book was very entertaining to say the least, not to mention, prepared me for the Zombie attack. Which we all know is coming, but pretend it isn’t! Overall Max Brooks does a fantastic job with this satire book of survival, “preparing” the readers against Zombie attacks with helpful survival tips. From choosing your weapons, to finding the perfect place for a hide out, Brooks explains it to you, ensuring you realize how horrible and serious the zombie threat is. I found his style of writing to be well done, he had a great tone throughout the book, making it easy to read and follow, and not at all boring for a “survival guide” and he has a good sense of humour in his writing as well. I’ve never been big on Zombies, but Max Brooks has changed that for me, I will definitely check out his other books on Zombies to see what they’re liked. The only thing I didn’t like is, I’m just not that into Zombies, funny and I couldn’t put it down, but Zombies aren’t my most favourite Sci-Fi/Fantasy horror monster or creature. I’m more of human/wizard vampire and the occasional Werewolf (Lupin!) person. But for those who aren’t interested in Zombies, like my self, this was a great way to be introduced. Great book on the humour side, and if zombie attack ever happens, then I will be prepared to fight. Warning: Please don’t destroy your stairs unless zombies are actually attacking. Because then your stuck upstairs (although if you have food, water, books, coffee, computer and internet connection, a comfy chair, bed, blankets clothes and a few more little items here and there, by all means. You’re set! Read your way through an attack!) Review also on my blog: http://juliebooks.blogspot.com/2009/0... Its awesome. It takes itself so seriously you some time need to double check to see if the zombie virus is fake, and that just adds to the humor. A funny read, withe some good advice to defend oneself from zombies, but I didn't like that it only looked at zombies that were created via solumin (sp?). They do mention that the zombie movies have it all wrong, but still, that's what we know. no reviews | add a review
