Reviews

[Jon Shaw · Rating 4 out of 5]

Kitchen is kind of a pain in the ass to read, but he tells you exactly where he stands, and how he feels. I picture him as a short, round, balding man, with a huge white beard and thick glasses. And he's old enough to not give a fuck.

[Dave Carlson · Rating 3 out of 5]

Very dense, lots of great information, a few obvious mistakes. Overall a very worthwhile read, but hard to follow at times as he jumps back and forth in time.
