    Default The Official Zombie Handbook UK

    Morning All,

    I've been part of our community for some time, mostly active on the Stainless Steel forum. Anyway, I am pleased to say that my first zombie book has just been published by Severed Press & is now available....

    So, I wanted to come here first & announce it to my learned collegues & gamers....

    If you have read the Max Brooks book, it's a slightly different take on that - equally relevant for anyone who lives in a built up area, obviously, here in the UK, we don't have guns & our police are armed with sticks.

    I'll include the links - if you do fancy it, please remember to post a review if you like it. I have published several short stories but this is my first book so I need all the love I can get.

    However, the payback for you is that if the sh&* does hit the fan - you should be well set up with my 90-Day Survival Plan included in the handbook...

    Here is some blurb..
    A Public Service Announcement

    From the Ministry of Zombies
    The Official Zombie Handbook UK Now Available!
    Through pioneering research and field work, the Ministry has also just published the Official Zombie Handbook (UK) which is the only government-approved guide you need to make it through a major zombie outbreak in this country, including: -
    · Full analysis of the latest scientific information available on the zombie virus, the living dead creatures it creates and most importantly, how to take them down.

    · What are we facing here – the lighting quick infected, sluggish ghouls, undead dogs, zombie prawns? – your questions answered by the top scientists in the field of zombiology such the Dr Khalid Ahmed

    · Everything you need to implement a complete “90 Day Zombie Survival Plan” for you and your family including home fortification, foraging for supplies and surviving a ghoul siege

    I'm sick of all this zombie stuff now. It's oh so very played out and tedious.

    I'm intrigued. I enjoyed the Zombie survival guide so this looks good too. It better have a section on how to decapitate zombies with medieval weaponry or else..

    Indeed my friend, there is a section on weapons & the trusty halberb is included. However, I also include the nail gun which proved to be a mental weapon in tests - 6-inch nails at thousands of feet per second, causes an estimated 40,000 injuries world wide each year - how can it be wrong.

    If you order it, hope you like it & do let me know what you think.

    I await your advices sir. I hope you enjoy it. At least if the £*$( does really hit the fan, you will think of your old mate, the handbook & be pleased with the sagely survival tips therein....

    Seriously, any feedback & amazon reviews would be great....

    This looks very interesting. I am a fan of the original Zombie Survival guide by Max Brooks, and I say this looks very cool. Also, very nice work on the cover art

    Looks like a british knockoff of "The Zombie Survival Guide"

    I wouldn't say knock off - there is a lot of different content in there - my approach is not quite the same. Britain & many other countries have different circumstances to the US we do need a version. Our population density is much higher, we have virtually no access to firearms & we don't really have any 'wilderness' as such. I'm sure it's the same if you live one of the major cities in the states.

    Everybody in the zombie survival community respects the Zombie Survival Guide - we all love it but it doesn't mean it answered all of the questions....

    I'll be sure to check it out.

    Well done by the way- must feel pretty good to have a published book out (Especially on one as something as cool as zombies).
