Having just watched ‘Zombieland,’ the latest undead movie to his theaters, I find it only natural that I’m drawn to Matt Brook’s ‘The Zombie Survival Guide: Recorded Attacks.’ Well, I might be more interested in his first book detailing actual survival techniques. But his account of zombie attacks throughout history is pretty interesting (and gruesome).

A hilarious take on what must have been a frightening ordeal for the victims, ‘The Zombie Survival Guide: Recorded Attacks’ features outstanding illustrations by Ibraim Roberson. This book is a must-have, especially with Halloween around the corner.
