The book was good. Just loved reading about the early days of the weed smugglers. Though quite different than todays smugglers, that time period held some basic business standards that included less violence, and more trust. The writing style of his book was somewhat hard to follow and his use of words that were not necessary was sometimes challenging to read. Overall, the story was great and it would make a great movie. If you liked "Blow", you will enjoy this book. I recommend it and look forward to the movie. (Or TV series) R.

I hope to enter it in the Marin County Fair this year, I also do art to order.

I couldn't stop reading once I started. I am glad to see folks writing about our generation and what we did.. It was just like real life! Highly recommended Rick Moore

Robert Sabbag has written a funny / exciting story. The author does a great job of putting you back into the early days of the drug trade. It is one of the better books I have read recently. This guy did a lot but his world wasn't quite as ruthless as the top level Pablo Escobar types.
