    			  A fun and VERY quick read. Nicely illustrated and sparsely worded romp through historic zombie encounters. My favorite is when they sink a ship full of zombie slaves and you see them walking the ocean floor. Good addition to the Brooks zombie mythology.

    			<br/>
    			



          
    			  I'm a huge fan of Nick Cave's music and I loved his first book. This was very different from &quot;And The Ass Saw The Angel&quot; in many ways. Hell, I would hope so. The first one came out in 1989. I like my books dark and I don't always need likable characters, this book had both. No review from me, nope. All I can say is I really liked it but I can't think of a single person I could recommend it to. Can't wait for the movie. I hear they are talking to Daniel Craig. That would be a kick in the pants.
