Hot on the hooves of Pulp Zombies comes Fistful o' Zombies, the third genre supplement for Eden Studios' All Flesh Must Be Eaten, the RPG of all zombie horror. AS the title suggests, Fistful o' Zombies takes our favorite corpse cortege way out West and down South for an all zombie hoedown on your bones and an all they can eat Tex-Mex meat feast for afters. Since this is "A Wild West Sourcebook" and All Flesh Must Be Eaten is a game of survival horror, Eden Studios have got the right author for the job, Shane Lacy Hensley. Described on the back cover as the "Sheriff of Wild West Gaming," Hensley is the renowned author of the Deadlands: The Weird West RPG, the original Wild West horror RPG, and Fistful o' Zombies is his first piece of freelance work since the publication of Deadlands.

Those possessing any of the previous All Flesh Must Be Eaten supplements will know what to expect with Fistful o' Zombies: a smaller-than-normal softback, well laid out with plenty of art, some tongue-in-cheek (usually your own or a zombie's) color fiction to set the scene, a brief-but-thorough overview of the genre, plus several Deadworlds. In this they will not be disappointed, as Fistful o' Zombies is well put together and Hensley's . . .
