Summary: Better than "Nasties"
Comment: For those considering buying either "Silent Death" or the similar "Assorted Nasties" by David Harbor, I recommend Silent Death as the superior item. It provides greater detail on the chemical procedures for the various projects described, and the author also includes invaluable comments on other authors' work. His remarks and corrections of Kurt Saxon's "Man's James Bond" projects are enough to justify buying Silent Death. By comparison, Assorted Nasties is a list of projects, often with minimal exposition as to make or properly use (for informational purposes only!) them, and some are the same as those in Silent Death. If you can afford to buy both, by all means do; but if you only buy one, then Silent Death should be it!

Summary: Your enemies will tremble with fear!
Comment: Wow. This is one of the greatest books on how to create toxins and neurotoxins in your own home.

Anyone who knows you have this book on your shelf at home will think tiwce about messin with you. With this book it tells you how any average Joe can cook up a batch of nerve gas and deliever it silently into your home, killing you and your family in a day or so.

Inside this little beauty you will find out how to make all sorts of poisons and even how to deliever them into someones home! Wonderful for those who are serious about this kind of thing, this is not a book for those who want entertainment. Of course I have an extensive history with chemestry so makeing this stuff to me was fairly easy, but for some of you it may be more complicated than you think.

I dont think you should let anyone you dont want to see this see this (yes im refering to your 13 year old son with the bolt through his nose and the green hair). Trust me its not just because he wants to look cool (might be but most the kids around my neighborhood who look like that always seem to be asking me questions about bombs, drugs, ect.).

A must buy for someone who has a grudge on someone (whether your going to actually use it or just scare ... them), this is the book for you.

Summary: It's not as easy as it looks
Comment: I agree that this book is pretty comprehensive; it's a good overview for someone beginning to think about poisons for the first time. Just remember if you are not trained in handling hazardous substances you are much more likely to kill yourself than anyone else. It may seem obvious, but it bears repeating: non-professionals should not fool around with poison gas. With the possible exception of some of the vegetable poisons, the dangers far outweigh any possible enlightment or profit or educational value you could hope to gain by working through these procedures.

The chapter on autopsies fails to address recent improvements in forensic technology. This is not really Uncle Fester's fault because this field changes so quickly, but readers need to know that it's much harder to avoid detection now than it was even a few years ago when the updated edition was written, which was before the full "mainstreaming" of trace DNA analysis (PCR etc). It is just about impossible, for instance, to plant a poison-gas grenade as described in chapter 3 without leaving DNA, even if you are careful not to leave fingerprints. Just breathing on an object will leave your mark, even if you wear a surgical mask. Commercial interactions are also harder to conceal than Uncle Fester seems to think. If you buy the seeds of toxic plants from any online or mail-order vendor your name will be on a searchable list in a government computer; then it only takes a possible motive to make some investigator's list of possible suspects. And then it's only a matter of time.

But the core take-home point of this book still applies: it is way too easy for a motivated undetered sociopath to kill people, individually or in groups. Read it and remember how fragile you are.
