I don't know; I didn't find it particularly funny. Carl Hiaasen is light years ahead of Tim Dorsey.

I'd have to finish this one first, but this book has a thin plot and is very disjointed with alot of filler.

Characters seem okay, we just need a story for these characters. Alot of characterization, but no story.

It had potential; i think the author is trying too hard to outdo Hiaasen. Just didn't work for me.

To correct a review from someone else, Carl Hiaasen's first book was written in 1986. This book was written in 1999. Clearly Dorsey is the copycat here, unfortunately not a very good one. Tried to like this book--just didn't care what happened anymore after 6 hrs of listening. The story just drags on and on; probably could have cut this book in half and it might've been enjoyable.

I had heard good things about this series and decided to take a chance on this book. Started out ok and I thought the narrator was good. Unfortunately this story goes nowhere. Reititious and boring. Plot made no sense, characters have unexplained supernatural powers, and a myriad of other flaws throughout the book. The writing was juvenile;for awhile I thought the book could've been written for children. But then again, sexual innuendo, transvestitism, etc. suggest not. Cannot believe I made to the end. Lame, lame, lame story. Do not waste a credit on this book.

This book is hilarious. Supposedly a true account of Richard Kuklinski's life, none of the subject matter is verified and simply taken as truth by the author. Furthermore, as others have stated, the editing is atrocious--the book is repetitous and full of cliches and trite phrases. The author tries to sensationalize everything to the point of non-belief.

The repetition of this book is unbelievable. You will the same ideas over and over and over and over and over and over again.

If I had the patience I would listen to the book again and count the number of cliches in this book. It's got to be in the hundreds.

I don't think this guy was connected to the mob--just a wannabe. Not too many specific details in this book, just vague generalizations. I don't doubt this guy is nuts and killed a few people but I think most of this is fantasy.

As far as the story goes, it's fairly interesting if you tolerate the repitition and the triteness.

I suggest you read some reviews on Amazon before you decide to invest a credit into this book.
