Resumen del Editor

Shaun Attwood arrived in Phoenix, Arizona, a penniless business graduate from a small industrial town in England. Within a decade, he became a stock-market millionaire. But he was leading a double life.

After taking his first Ecstasy pill at a rave in Manchester as a shy student, Shaun became intoxicated by the party lifestyle that would change his fortune. Years later, in the Arizona desert, Shaun became submerged in a criminal underworld, throwing parties for thousands of ravers and running an Ecstasy ring in competition with the Mafia mass murderer Sammy 'The Bull' Gravano.

As greed and excess tore through his life, Shaun had eye-watering encounters with Mafia hit men and crystal-meth addicts, enjoyed extravagant debauchery with superstar DJs and glitter girls, and ingested enough drugs to kill a herd of elephants. This is his story.

Much longer than the first edition!

This book is a fast-paced spiral into drug crazed insanity. It's a true story that will blow your mind. Having read the first edition years ago, I decided to try the second, which includes even more stories than the first and even crazier! Attwood really takes you there with his descriptions. For example "Next room. Fashion show. A stage lit pink and blue by filtered spotlights fixed to metal ladder structures. A woman struts on the runway in a tight shirt with silver flames, a jacket dangling from her elbows, blue leopard print with combed white plush drooping from the bottom, bright-pink patent vinyl trousers completing the look. Primo walks on in a white suit hand-painted with orange and green stripes and spots, his torso naked and hairless, carrying a tray with glasses and a pitcher patio set, seven-inch-thick platform heels on circus shoes, with grey vacuum cleaner tubes spiralling around his ankles. A woman in a white faux-rabbit-fur bolero crop jacket over nude breasts sashays with strength and confidence, a Betty Boop tattoo peeking out of white thong panties, curves dressing her up."

I highly recommend this, and the new edition of hard time.

Made me miss my days of glittery girls half naked!

Great book for anyone but especially people on the scene around the world! Crazy memories!!

Incredible

I stayed up at night wanting to finish this book. The narrator was very good. The story sounded fictional. I couldn't comprehend why someone will leave a job where he earns millions of dollars to drug trafficking. By the end of the book it became clear to me that this is happening every day in our world. I hope this book will assist people struggling with drug addiction to rethink their destiny.

Fascinating story

I found this audible book quite difficult to turn off and really enjoyed it. I look forward to listening to others in this series.

Hard to Believe

Watching Shaun on YouTube, he seems to be such a wonderful man. But just like everyone there's a dark side. This is Shaun's dark side to his life many many years ago. Thankfully he's leading a respectable life in England. Too bad he's been deported, I'd love to meet him & talk to him about the Steve Avery case.

....brings back memories....

This book brought back many a rave memories! The fun and drugs had by most, that pulsing beat, and the wild clothes. I heard Shaun on a podcast I listen to and it reminded me that I’d heard of this book but forgotten to read it. So glad audible had his work! I’ve got the next book queued up and ready to go!! I can’t wait to hear the next part of his journey, though it won’t be all that fun....

great story

the fist two books are fantastic but the 3 book had a different reader and hasn't been as EZ to get into. the first 2 books are worth the credit.

Absolutely Exceptional

As someone who listens to a lot of audiobooks I can honestly say this book was absolutely exceptional. The story was so riveting there were multiple points which had me holding my breath with anticipation for what could possibly be coming next, and it was very difficult to stop listening. It’s the kind of book you don’t want to end. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to listen to an outrageous story about a very fast life.

The story is good, the performance SUCKS.

Perhaps it's because I was first exposed to Mr Atwood in a YouTube interview... so it's my opinion that this book must be read by a Brit. The wank who reads this is quite literally the worst audio book performer I've ever heard. I couldn't make it past the second chapter. Gonna try to get a refund actually.

Bad narrator or robot?

The narrator is making this story seem like a joke. His emotions ride on one road and never veer off, ever. This is a story with explicit drug use with some sexuality thrown in and this narrator keeps the same tone and it's completely fighting against everything in the book. It is so weird to listen to that it could be a skit in SNL. I sound mean but I can't find the correct words to describe this strange experience. I haven't read any reviews but I would bet money that this is mentioned in EVERY review. Fingers crossed for a different narrator next book
