SURVIVAL OF THE DEAD Synopsis: The newest film from horror master George A. Romero (legendary creator of the Night Of The Living Dead franchise) picks up where Diary Of The Dead leaves off - in a nightmarish world where humans are the minority and the zombies rule. Off the coast of Delaware sits Plum Island, where two families are locked in a struggle for power. The O'Flynns approach the zombie plague with a shoot-to-kill attitude. The Muldoons feel that the zombies should be quarantined and kept 'alive,' in hopes that a solution will be discovered. For both families, existence on Plum Island is a nightmarish world where humans are the minority and zombie rule.   Starring: Athena Karkanis Kathleen Munroe   Category: Thriller   Age Restriction: 16 LV

Hard cover with jacket Published by Ian Allan in -  first edition 136 pages with some B&W photographs Red boards in very good conditi on with only minor bumping to spine ends. Internally too the book is in very good condition. Jacket has edgewear with some minor tears to the foldover edges. Light tanning to foldovers mainly at ends. Jacket is not price-clipped.    Most great escape stories so far told have been concerned with the exploits of officer prisoners of war in well-known camps like Colditz and Stalag Luft III. Less well-known but equally heroic were those of the large numbers of RAF NCO pilots, observers and air gunners who fell into German hands. Although early in the war they shared camps with their officers at places like Sagan and cooperated closely in developing effective escape organisations, the NCOs were soon segregated into their own compounds and left to their own resources in the ceaseless struggle to escape. A particularly notorious NCO camp was Heydekrug on the Baltic coast in what was East Prussia – the scene of one of the most remarkable POW exploits of the war. Warrant Officer George Grimson succeeded in establishing an escape route within Nazi Germany itself. One of the great classic escape books, Sergeant Escapers  tells the story of George Grimson and his fellow NCOs and their attempts, successful and unsuccessful, to outwit their captors, frequently in conditions that made Colditz look like a rest camp. The author, was himself a POW and an eye-witness to the unfolding drama of the Grimson escape saga.                   We do combine postage with other purchases so click here to see other books we are selling
