"Bats in the Rafters"
used with the permission of artist Michel Farivar
Right now I'm fortunate to be editing the new edition of Michel Farivar, MD's classic work on Ninja weaponry. Dr. Farivar has added intriguing new materials and observations for the second edition, as well as several new pieces of artwork portraying the deadly techniques associated with these weapons. His richly original and though provoking research into the darkly arcane world of Ninja killing tools makes for chilling reading.
Dr. Farivar is uniquely qualified to write this book. In addition to be being a practicing psychiatrist and wonderfully gifted artist, Dr. Farivar was taught the art of ninjutsu by world famous Grandmaster Robert Law of the Geijin Ryu.
I'll let you know when the new edition is ready for press.

That's great! But you don't really want to kill Ninjas, do you?
LOL- I changed the post title, Alex! Thanks for the catch.
Ninjas are bad-ass! What an awesome book! Love the artwork you've posted here too.
I love "Bats in the Rafter," too. Although the pen and inks on poison darts is outstanding. I'll post more of his artwork as he permits.
I suppose I should learn about weapons other than guns, In case I run out of ammo.
Yeah, but wouldn't you rather learn to hang upside down from the rafters, Charles? Now that's serious fun.
