Fascinating
Kinda cool: This book is an interesting overview of all weapons ninja including sickles, staffs, canes, pole arms, articulated weapons, grapnels, maces, spikes, cleats, claws, swords, shurikens, pyrotechnics, and even firearms. The text is quick and easy to read and the pictures are excellent. The insight into stealth and invisible weapons is great. This isn't a "how to" book, but even if it was you could never "master" any of these items from the few pages that could be devoted to each one. You will certainly learn a bit about each weapon's history and how they are used. It's a really fascinating read.

the rewiew
This book is over 300 pages and has a lot of diagrams. The diadvantage of the book is it is very complicated to learn and the movements take a lot i mean alot of time to do. i have not seen a book with that much information and exercises.if you are new to dim-mak chances are when you see the blocks and stance of dimmak you would quit. Howewer the advantage is it does have chapters on very basic self defence easy to learn moves and does show you how to ko a person and how to revive them in more than ten ways. If your searching for a book ondeadly strikes this is the book to buy and yes the moves do work. so deadly that you would have to think thrice before using them and in a physical fight chances are you would not use such effective moves AUTOMATICLY if you dont practice everyday it does also explain on how the moves work and includes also the st.9 point

Great follow-up book
This book is an excellent continuation of Mr. Montaigue's first book, "Dim-Mak: Death Point Striking".In this book, the author goes into footwork, and how to keep your ballance while moving (ignored by a lot of folks); how to handle a knife attack; different Qi-gong and other excersises; qi-related nutrition, and much more!I think a lot of what's in this volume could probably stand alone, but to truly begin to understand it's depth, the first book is needed.Once again, the author's style of writting is very laid-back and personable; I felt like he was right there, talking to me.As for the content, this book has so much that's missing from other books on the Chinese and/or internal martial arts.For those who don't know, a lot of Mr. Montaigue's system is based on T'ai Chi and Paqua; he's just put claws on those styles, and made them "martial" again.The chapter on how to bring up internal "animal" energy was very unique, and the chapter on knife defense seems very practical.A chapter on martial arts ethics is also included, which was nice, as well as a chapter discussing teaching martial arts to children.If you own "Death Point Striking", and wish to learn more on the subject, this should be your next book.I'd also recomend this to those who wish to learn about holistic health from a Chinese perspective, as well as martial artists who are searching for more than just the latest fad, who really want to refine themselves.
