Very unbiased look into the career of Mario Lemieux. It gives you a behind the scene look of his career from juniors, through the Stanley cup wins, and through his cancer treatments. The player is definitely deeper than I once thought. The book was very good but misses out on the later stages or his career and post playing days. Definitely an interesting read.
