Utne.com reviews Heavy Metal Fun Time Activity Book

Never has "fun time" been so charged with such raw, terror-fueled rock power

Never has "fun time" been so charged with such raw, terror-fueled rock power. The Heavy Metal Fun Time Activity Book by Aye Jay Morano, to be published in September by the Canadian ECW Press, doesn't invite you to enjoy its mélange of hard rock marginalia -- it dares you not to. The activity book opens with a thoughtful foreword by Andrew W.K. but quickly gets to the playful shenanigans. Readers can use the two crayons (black and red) taped to the cover to color in drawings of Black Sabbath and Pantera; connect the dots on guitarist Dimebag Darrell's goatee; and fill out a demonic Sudoku puzzle that's conspicuously peppered with sixes. Before you embark into this book of unadulterated hard rock mayhem, you might want to ask yourself: How many words can you make from the letters in White Zombie?
