If you've watched American Ninja 1 & 2, Avenging Force, Revenge of the Ninja, Ninja 3: The Domination, Cyborg Cop, Blood Warriors etc then you've watched a Sam Firstenberg movie!

Now there's a suitably epic book about Sam and his life in movies and more, complete with extensive interviews with Firstenberg and many of his cast and crews including Michael Dudikoff, Steve James (Impact interview from back in the day) fight choreographer Steve Lambert, Lucina Dickey who worked with Firstenberg on both Ninja 3 and Breakin 2: Electric Boogaloo,  Shabba Doo & Boogaloo Shrimp from the Breakin series and many other cast and crew, tons of rare behind the scenes photos, storyboards and stories logging in at just under 800 pages!  If you're a fan of B-movie action and martial arts cinema, Cannon Films etc, this is great reading.... full review to follow , as got to digest so much of whats in there!

Great work from Marco Siedelman who previously wrote a book about the Shapiro Glickenhaus Entertainment company and the various projects it made and people who worked for them including co-founder James Glickenhaus who spoke about his 'experiences' working with Jackie Chan on THE PROTECTOR back in the day....
