Product Description

Warren Murphy and Richard Sapir wrote "The Assassin's Handbook,"in 1982.
...A lot has happened since then!

Murphy once again teams up with a great Destroyer Author in James Mullaney. Together, they bring you the all-new readers guide to the past thirty years of America's greatest adventure series!

This long-awaited sequel to the original "Assassin's Handbook" is brought to print by Warren Murphy's Ballybunnion Books, and is now available. Inside you will find the all-new Destroyer Novella; "False Starts and Bitter Ends" by James Mullaney, a unique interview of the authors by the fans of the series, and an original short story; "The man in Room 36E". And oh yeah, ...a whole lot of Chiun! There's lot's more to enjoy inside these pages than I can list here.

The Destroyer Series centers overtly around the adventures of Remo Williams. Remo is a Newark, N.J. police officer who gets framed for a drug dealer's murder. Sentenced to death and on Death Row, he is offered the chance to stay alive by going along with plans to fake his death. Surviving his death sentence, he wakes to fnd he's been recruited to be a highly trained enforcement arm for a secret government organization called CURE. Remo is trained in a style of martial arts called Sinanju named after the Korean village where it was created. His mentor is a wizened, old Korean named Chiun. Chiun is the single most lethal force on the planet.
Hillariously funny, the series details the exploits of Remo and Chiun as Remo attempts to save the country, one crime at a time with Chiun along to continue training Remo.
The satire in this series will keep you rolling on the floor; but the true fan will tell you that the reason to keep reading the series is to be a part of the relationship which develops between Chiun and Remo. A true father-son bond forms. While Chiun is typically the father in the relationshp, he is often childlike and "Jewish-motherly" alike.
The Destroyer Series is one of the longest running action fiction series in American history. ...And for good reason.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Introduction to the Destroyer series, June 1, 2010
This review is from: Destroyer World: The Assassin's Handbook II (Kindle Edition)
I remember how happy I was when news that another Assassins Handbook was in the works . Jim Mullaney had been writing the Destroyer, but his last book was the previous spring. Warren Murphy hadn't been involved in writing since the early '90s at least. Now they had co-written a sequel to Murphy and Richard Sapir's great Assassin's Handbook.

I've reread parts of the book again and again, especially the story "The Man in Room 36-E" and the novella False Starts and Bitter Ends. Like the original Assassin's Handbook, it's full of info on the various characters who have been part of the Destroyer throughout the years -- villains, allies, and assorted supporting characters. We also hear a lot more from Chiun, who gets to write what he wants for a change, such as his explanation of why he is not a racist, and the real titles of the Destroyer books.

If you enjoy this, three of the four New Destroyers are still in print:The New Destroyer: Guardian Angel (Destroyer #146)
The New Destroyer: Choke Hold (Destroyer #147)The New Destroyer: Dead Reckoning (Destroyer #148)
