(4) 4-6 Edge Books: Real-Life Zombies series. With their brief, gruesome descriptions of how parasites and parasitoids prey upon their victims, these books will appeal to those who like their nonfiction grisly. Unfortunately, the color photographs, while plentiful, are often difficult to decipher. The page design incorporates sidebars, multiple fonts, and loud graphics seemingly intended to inspire fear and awe but which only further the visual clutter. Reading list. Glos., ind. Review covers these Edge Books: Real-Life Zombies titles: Body Snatchers and Brain Eaters.
