review 1: I really want to go a-caroling with these tunes - SO AWESOME!!***It's the Most Wonderful Time to Feel Fear (Tune: It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year)It's the most wonderful time to feel fear, While the virus is jelling, And everyone's yelling that Zombies are here,It's the most wonderful time to feel fear.There's be fresh brains for roasting, Intestines for toasting, And body parts out in the snow.There'll be Undead beheadingAnd Zombies a-spreading, From viruses long, long, ago.It's the most wonderful time to feel fear.There'll be no Zombies slowingAnd brains will be glowing, When undead ones are near.It's the most wonderful time to feel fear!***We Wish You an Undead Christmas (Tune: We Wish You a Merry Christmas)We wish you an undead Christmas;We wish you an undead ... moreChristmas;We wish you an undead Christmas while we chew off your ear.Zombie virus we bring to you and your kin;We'll eat brains for Christmas and through the New Year.Oh, bring us a hippocampus;Oh, bring us a hippocampus;Oh, bring us a hippocampus and a cup of root bear.We won't go until we eat you;We won't go until we eat you;We won't go until we eat you, so come on out here.***We Three Spleens (Tune: We Three Kings)We three spleens, you know where we are: Two in the kitchen and one in the car.We are still eating, people are fleeing.Let's eat the one in the car.Oooooh, spleens of wonder, they taste right.We could eat spleens all day and night.We're still eating, people screaming. Let's eat until first light.
review 2: This is a collection of 30 Christmas carols rewritten to include lyrics about zombies. That's basically it, which is fine as that's what the blurb on the back cover claims it is. Some are funnier than others, and the links to the original songs are a bit tenuous, but it's not a bad effort. There are also a large number of illustrations of fairly good quality that depict some aspect of each song.OK, it's not really in the spirit of proper zombie fiction, but it serves its purpose in being a fun gift or novelty item for horror fans. It's not hilarious, but it's not bad, and original as far as I know (and I've seen a lot of books about zombies in my time). less

The premise get old quickly. It was clever initially, but its not clever enough to be a book.
