CROWN The Zombie Survival Guide: Complete Protection from the Living Dead

My best friend lent me this 17 years ago when we worked together. I began to read it and, for whatever reason, just put it away.I just finished Mel Brooks's "All About Me." Mel mentions, and I had NO idea, that the author, Max Brooks, was his son!I went downstairs to find another book and what basically jumps out at me? "The Zombie Survival Guide." It is not in the most pristine condition; certainly not as my friend lent it to me.I decided to surprise him with not only the book, but the buried memory that I could now return the book he let me borrow so many years ago. He had forgotten all about it and, when I laid my memories on him, we both got a great laugh out of it.Warning! Do not read this book, thinking it an actual compendium of survival tips,in case of any contact or attack by the "undead."He may not have purposely intended this to be as funny as it it, but, it's Mel Brooks's son...How can one not read thus as what it's meant to be, a tongue-in-cheek compilation of survival tips, just in case of a zombie outbreak.

É mais um livro de consulta para uma situação de emergência do que um livro que possa ser lido contiuamente até chegar ao seu fim. Mas é bem completo, recomendo para amantes do apocalipse e zombis em geral.

alles ok

Mi aspettavo un taglio più umoristico o ironico, invece siamo davanti a un vero e proprio trattato rigido e "scientifico"... Sono pur sempre consigli per salvarsi la vita, e quindi meglio prenderli con serietà! Attenzione: immergersi troppo nella lettura può causare la convinzione che l'arrivo degli zombie sia davvero imminente.

Max Brooks - this guy either lived in a dimension occupied by zombies or he has crazy imagination.While reading the book I was completely blown but how informative, detailed, and experienced Brooks writings were.It is almost like this guy really was there and fought the zombies for 10-15 years, while studying them and developing fighting techniques.Hands down this is the best zombie survival guide out there.After reading it, I even started thinking of making my own zombie survival kit in the event of an outbreak.This little book really gets to you.Highly recommended for a first zombie read or any one interested in getting wicked knowledge on zombie survivorship.My rating: 10 stars :-)
