Book Description
Dear Stupid Idiots, A lot of you have been saying that I don't know anything about REAL ninjas. But that's a bunch of bull crap! You dummies don't know anything. And maybe YOU should get a life. I bet a lot of you have never even seen a girl naked! You idiots believe that ninjas had some "code of honor." Yeah right! If by "code of honor," you mean "code to flip out and go nuts for absolutely no reason at all even if it means that people might think you are totally insane or sweet," then you are right. But if you mean a "code to be nice and speak nicely while sharing and not cutting off heads," then you're the biggest idiot ever!!!!!! So if you have any brains, you will shut up and get a life. So go shut up, you stupid idiot. No thank you, Robert Hamburger

 Stupid But Funny - That's the Point June 2, 2008
I bought this for one reason... to get my order up so I could get free shipping. It's meant to be written by a kid who loves ninjas (and who doesn't love ninjas) and is somewhat along the vein of askaninja.com but not quite as ... ahem ... sophisticated. I did catch myself laughing out loud a few times, so right there, the book is worth it for me. Of course, some of it is dumb but I've never read any book that I totally loved, front to back. Neither of them. It's cheap, it's funny, and is good ninja training material for when all ninjas are called up to save the world.
 Don't bother with it May 31, 2008

I bought this along with another book, thinking it would be a fun read. I couldn't even make it through the first chapter. Very stupid. I'm surprised it made it to publication.
 Do you think ninjas are totally sweet? May 2, 2008
If you've ever wanted to go out there and study martial arts so you too can become a true killing machine and take on aliens and pirates and maybe, if you're really feeling your Wheaties, your mom, this is the book for you.
It's all about Ninjas and how sweet they are and all the cool things they can do. What more do you need to know?
Laugh out loud until you pee in your pants funny, I literally was rolling with laughter in my seat on my last airline flight. I'm lucky the air marshals didn't feel threatened by me. The misadventures of Robert Hamburger, whoever he is, are hilarious and maybe just a little bit sad. The poor little guy has really no one to talk to and has to live his life in the obsessive world of ninjas.
But, for all of that, it's damn funny. We adults who have passed that awkward part of our childhood and broken through to the other side can relate.
Now go out there and start training. Robert is probably already well into his yoga by now, honed with his Tekken skills, so you'll have some catching up to do.
Sweet!

I do not like where this product is listed, it has absolutely no relevence to the martial arts and it belongs in this section about as much as Herodotus does in current events.
This book is a work of fiction, in spite of its goals or content, it belongs with the other works of fiction. Amazon, MOVE THIS WHERE IT BELONGS!
