"Simon Monk's The Maker's Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse is a dead serious hands-on survivor's guide to life in a post-apocalyptic world. Simon takes us on a technological tour, improvising a survivor's electric supply from scavenged auto parts, building zombie alarms, and adding remote access and devices that will detect open doors. I highly recommend this book for readers at all levels of expertise." --David Herres, author of The Homeowner's DIY Guide to Electrical Wiring " The Maker's Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse is chock-full of cool projects for people who like tinkering, building, and programming--or for people who want to learn those things." --Daily XY " The Maker's Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse by Simon Monk is a fun way to learn about basic preparedness and how to craft some essential electronic contraptions to survive the horde." --Amazing Stories Magazine "Simon Monk's The Maker's Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse stands out from the rest of the survival guides...you'll learn practical things like how to draw zombies away from your location or how to communicate with your scavenging team while you're at your home base. You won't be disappointed." --Horror Talk "I recommend this book to anyone thinking about getting into hobby electronics. Simon Monk does an excellent job of providing great detail and information about general electronics, Arduino and Raspberry Pi." --Manhattan Book Review "The book is fun to read and lovely illustrated; all in all, The Maker's Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse gives a great introduction into making and is one of the best books for encouraging young people to become makers." --Knight of Pi
