From Good reads:
The Christian Zombie Killers Handbook delivers a fresh, relevant look at the doctrines of sin, grace, and salvation.

Ben Forman was just an ordinary guy, a young professional starting his first job and falling in love with his girlfriend. Living in the outskirts of a southern city, he didn't think the zombie activity so common in the major cities would hit so close to home. But it was becoming clear that the mysterious infection reanimating the deceased was a growing epidemic across the country. The question was, would he stay alive or become the undead?

In this one-of-kind approach to teaching about sin, grace, and salvation, The Christian Zombie Killers Handbook tracks the fictional life of Ben Forman and offers solid Bible teaching to help readers understand the gravity and consequences of life without God, of life as a zombie. Ephesians 2:4-5 says, "But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in our transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved." Without the salvation Jesus offers, we are all as good as dead. But as this book teaches in a winsome, cutting-edge, culturally relevant style, anyone can kill the zombie inside, escape the clutches of the undead, and come alive by the supernatural power of God's salvation.

My Opinion:

Wow I did not know what to expect really when i picked up this book but i have to say i liked it quite a bit.. I wont lie I wanted it mainly for the title and the cover lol but i really enjoyed both the fiction and non fiction parts of the book ..and i liked how it went from the zombie story and then to a non fiction explanation of it and the book really makes you think at least i know it made me think..I love how the its uses the use of zombies to describe the inner demon we all have in ourselves and alot of the points are valid and i would have to agree.

I personally really enjoyed getting to know Ben and the rest of the characters in the book.. i have such a hard time with reviews cause it seems like everything i want to say is going to some way or another give away the story. Im just happy to say im glad that we dont live in a world with the zombies that Ben lives with but I guess in all reality those Zombies would be better to live with the ones that we do live with!

My Rating would be 4 stars just because i hate the ending of the Zombie story!
