 Constant Entertainment January 28, 2008

I am a huge fan of Dog the Bounty Hunter and when i saw the book on one of the episodes i was immediately on amazon buying the book. Once i started reading it i was immediately hooked. It shows perfectly how Dog became a gangster, how his life in prision was, and how he changed his life for the better even though he was constantly screwed over. If your a fan of the programme, this is a must read!
Gripping stuff January 25, 2008

I loved this book, im a big fan of the show, and bought this last week, it was delivered in 3 days! Anyway, Dog's story is a definite heart warmer. The chapter on the hunt on Luster, the max factor heir, was gripping and had me on the edge of my lazyee boy! Highly recommended to all you dog the bounty hunter fans!
LOVE IT January 2, 2008

I do not disagree with wanting to hear more about the team and recent bounties but I bought this book purely to get an insight into Dogs past and not to read his version of events for bounties that we can see on the show. It is a very good read, slightly confusing but loved it any way!
WELL RECOMMENDED
 dog the bounty hunter? what about the team! November 10, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This does give a great insight to Dogs early life and crimes. However, when it got to more recent bounty hunting he rarely mentions his team, giving tim & leland etc little credit for their help with captures. I would certainly recommend it if you are a fan of the televison series.
An Amazing life but only a good book! September 3, 2007
13 out of 13 found this review helpful
I was really looking forward to reading this, and I'd certainly recommend it. It does paint a darker side than the TV show portrays, and it's clear that Dog had (and still does have) his demons to fight.
I was amazed by his honesty. He reveals stuff about his life which must be painful, and doesn't always paint him in the way he might like to be portrayed. The information about Baby Lyssa knocked me for six, and how Dog maintains his faith with all the adversity he has faced is a testament to his strength and an inspiration to others.
My only niggle is that the book is confused in places. Some of that could be due to Dog's drug hazed recollections, but in chapter 33 (aprox 1999) it talks about meeting Tim (Youngblood) - that's only 8 years ago, and Dog has hunted with Tim for over 20 years so it is just plain wrong! - That should have been picked up by someone, and there are several other examples which can make the book confusing in places.
Like the previous reviewer, I'd like to have read more about current bounties and the other team members. Leyland, Tim & Duane Lee got less mention than Tony Robbins which is a shame for such key members of Dog's success (perhaps that's for a future book?!)
All in all it is well worth reading and a rollercoaster ride of emotions.
