I read it over the summer (my sister works for the publisher and gets me free early releases).  It was OK.  Most of the stories he tells had already been mentioned briefly in Super System I and II.

But, the chapter about his penchant for Thai boy hookers took me by surprise.  That whole thing about the Bangkok whorehouse "last longer" prop bet with Barry Greenstien was a little too much information.

At least I understand why he walks with a limp now.

 I am in the midst of reading it as we speak.


I should have a review of it up by next week, but don't hold me to it.
