Do you believe that the world will be overrun by zombies one day? Want to be prepared so that you can survive a zombie infested life? Ben Jackson’s How To Survive The Zombie Apocalypse: The Complete Guide To Urban Survival, Prepping and Zombie Defense might be the book for you. Jackson doesn’t claim to be an expert at all: “This isn’t the Bible of zombies, but I’ve tried to get as close to one as I can get. Obviously some of the information in this book is tongue in cheek, the rest, well, it could just save your life one day.”
Despite the apparent purpose as fun material, there are actually some good facts in this guide. One of the interesting parts of this guide is the types of zombies, particularly the “Haitian or Voodoo zombies.” This chapter is followed by a discussion on your location situation; should you move around or stay in one place? Then Jackson discusses preparation and supplies, weapons, forming a group or going solo. There’s also a chapter regarding transportation. Jackson reviews a general list of different types of transportation including bicycles. To be honest, a car or truck would definitely be my choice, no matter what. At the end of the day, no doubt survivalists or preppers have the best chances of survival should a zombie apocalypse occur. Overall, How To Survive The Zombie Apocalypse is an entertaining and informative read from Jackson. That said, I hope we won’t actually be needing this book anytime soon.
