Reviews for Zombie Combat Manual: A Guide to Fighting the Living Dead

"The Zombie Combat Manual kicks undead ass! Roger Ma saves the day with this smart, funny, and thoroughly practical book on fighting the living dead. Now we have a chance! * Jonathan Maberry, multiple Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Patient Zero and Zombie CSU, and member of the International Martial Arts Hall of Fame * ... The Zombie Combat Manual gains a tremendous amount of depth by narrowing its focus: Instead of discussing the roots, history and process of zombification, it assumes the eventuality of infestation so you can begin to prepare for it right away... The best compliment I could give the book is that several times, I found myself agreeing with some discussion before I caught myself and said, ""Wait, this is about freaking zombies. * Tony Deconinck, AOL News * The book is both well-written AND a treat to the eyes. It is, in my opinion, a must-have to any zombie enthusiast's book collection. * Stuart Conover, BuyZombie.com *"
