This book is another mashup, this time of the Beatles themselves. It is a humorous book in the vein of all those humor movies and books on zombies. It is written like a tell-all biography endorsed by the Beatle zombies themselves (oh, and Ringo who is a living Ninja Lord). You also get some insights into other icons of the Rock era like Mick Jagger, Roy Orbison, and even Elvis. There is a story within all the "revelations" and humor which moves the book along.
I do caution those that are die-hard Beatles fans. If you cannot see your fab 4 "messed" with, do not pick up this book. Even though it is told with humor, I do believe that those fans might be horrified that Lennon is angry and a warmonger. Paul, and George who also believes as Lennon (it's the zombie nature as is often quoted). Those that can find humor in seeing their idols in a completely different and humorous light, go for this book. You might find a good laugh in it. Also, knowing this is a zombie book understand that it is also a violent book with lots of brain eating and mayhem. So, those that like their humor in a more gentle light might also look elsewhere.
I give this book 3 stars. It was a fun and humorous book with lots of zombie goodies to keep you interested. I only gave it 3 stars because I also think it was one that is more for a specific audience instead of a wide ranging paranormal audience.

I thought this book might be good, but it was really boring. I didn't finish it.

Beatles and zombies .... hmm. When I first saw this cover, I was like whoa. I had to take a look for myself!! This book is hysterical!! It's told from all the characters perspectives, and will leave you rolling with laughter. Zombies, ninja lords, vampires, and zombie killer Mick Jagger set the scene for how the Beatles rocked and ate their way to stardom and those that tried to keep them out of trouble. Totally mindless and fun, and I highly recommend it!!

I'm not a big Beatles buff, so I felt like I wasn't laughing at something that was supposed to be funny. If I'd known how the actual happenings differed from the humorously erroneous versions here I would have enjoyed it a lot more. Also it helps if you are a vile zombie sympathizer.
