Hours of bone-crunching zombie action with 100 paths and 50 endings to choose from—perfect for fans of The Walking Dead. "Creepy, chilling, and lots of nasty fun" (Jonathan Maberry). Inside these pages lies unspeakable horror. Bloodsplattering, brain-impaling, flesh-devouring horror. You’ve probably read your fair share of zombie stories. But this time it’s different. No longer can you sit idle as a bunch of fools make all the wrong moves. All hell is about to break loose—and YOU have a say in humanity’s survival. You have choices to make. Moral dilemmas. Strategic decisions. Weapons. Vehicles. Will you be a hero? Or will you cover your own ass at all costs? Can you withstand the coming hours, days, weeks, and months? Or will you die amidst the chaos and violence of a zombie uprising? Or, worst of all, will you become one of them?

The follow-up to the bestselling Reasons to Smoke, featuring new whimsical line drawings and humorous text to celebrate another much-loved vice—drinking! Simple rationalizations include: It''s happy hour…somewhere; I was denied a government bailout; Prohibition''s over; It''s almost Friday; More green than bottled water; The opposite sex; and many more!

Bathroom Trivia is a witty title to be read while answering the call of nature. Arranged in an informal way that readers can dip into randomly, the pages provide enough trivia, games, puzzles, stories, articles, and quizzes for even the longest restroom visits. Featuring an innovative mix of photographs and original artwork, the book will reveal everything from the workings of a toilet to the top ten dog names. Readers will come out of the restroom not only relieved but more knowledgeable as well!

Reasons to Smoke is the rallying manifesto for the 45 million Americans who are still puffing away and stubbornly refuse to quit-or just haven''t gotten around to it yet. The antithesis to our bestselling book Quit, which has sold more than a million copies, this book provides simple, humorous-but still compelling!- rationalizations for those large, cohesive communities of smokers who can be found bonding in scores outside office buildings, restaurants, and bars in most major cities across the U.S. They are unfazed by the smoking bans sweeping the nation. They have solid reasons to smoke. This book will add to their repertoire, and reinforce that lighting up isn''t just a mindless addiction. A hilarious book with, guaranteed, no socially redeeming value, Reasons to Smoke will be a commiserating impulse item appealing to all those outlaw smokers out there huddling in doorways, feeling ousted by the non-smoking members of society.
