Destroyer World: The Assassin's Handbook (The Destroyer)

In 1982, Warren Murphy and Richard Sapir wrote "The Assassin's Handbook," a reader's guide to their long running Destroyer series of books. It was hailed as "oddball," "satiric," and a work of "unbridled weirdness."

Over the years, the book became a collector's item. In December 2002, the book was returned to print by Warren Murphy's Ballybunnion Books.

We are thrilled to be able to bring this much sought-after title into the digital age by making it available for the Amazon Kindle.

The Assassin's Handbook also contains a novella by Sapir and Murphy entitled "THE DAY REMO DIED." A retelling of the beginning of the series, it provides a fresh new perspective into the early days of Remo and Chiun.

ABOUT THE SERIES:
Sentenced to death for a crime he didn’t commit, ex-cop Remo Williams is rescued from the electric chair and recruited by a secret government organization as an assassin, targeting criminals who are beyond the law. Remo’s trainer is a curmudgeonly old Korean named Chiun, whose mastery of the terrifyingly powerful martial art of Sinanju makes him the deadliest man alive.

The winning combination of action, humor, and mysticism has made the Destroyer one of the best-selling series of all time. With more than 150 books and over 50 million copies sold worldwide, the Destroyer has been praised by the LA Times as “flights of hilarious satire,” and gave birth to the mythology of the brash young Westerner taught by an ancient, inscrutable master.
