review 1: A fun book to pass some time with, not a long time, it's not a lengthy book. It reads in short sections that instruct the reader how to win a fight with almost anyone ! It is funny,hi-larious in spots, not to be taken seriously nor is it a novel, it's comedy! I hope that would be obvious. A great, inexpensive gift for any guy of almost any age who isn't a 100% pacifist. Most women will get a lot of laughs from it too. I did. Sat and read it with my fella and laughed a lot !
review 2: Hilarious!! This book had me laughing out loud every time I sat down to read it.Stand-up comedian, Kevin Seccia, wrote this book using his vast fighting experience which includes a 0-1 underground boxing record and a purple belt in tai kwon do. The book gives you advice on fightin
... moreg nearly anything. I wouldn't go so far as to call the advice practical, but it is certainly humorous. In this book, you will learn how to beat up everything from an orange traffic cone, to a zombified Abe Lincoln, to my personal favorite, a monkey with a hammer.The books are written sort of like I think. Seccia takes you down quick tangents and "what if" scenarios in a way very similar to how you would approach it in your own head. The writing style is also similar to the stories that I make up to entertain my children. Althought, Seccia does tend to swear more than I do towards a 5 year old. The only real drawback is that the author does swear fairly consistently. Personally, I thought it added to the humor and was enjoyable, but I know that may not be for everyone. It's also not necessarily a book you could read to your kids without editing. It is a very quick read though, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.I received this book in a Goodreads Firstreads Giveaway. less

Could have been maybe 30 pages shorter (the concept got a bit repetitive), but a good/funny read.

Couldn't resist this because of the title alone.
