I have a copy of his book on my desktop; read some of it, it's interesting, though not terribly well written and there are some cringeworthy moments. But I've read far worse; not a bad attempt for a part-timer, and I presume before publishing he's had it proofread to remove some of the dodgy construction. The story itself is reasonable.

I agree with monk that if you met him in person he would probably be an entertaining guy. I kinda feel sorry for him, he is an angry old man and at some point became that bitter old man that no one wants to be. I read some of his work about a guy I played with "The Duke" who is semi famous around Vegas. His work is entertaining thought a little over done at times but not a bad read. Though the stuff he did here is inexcusable, taking an internet beef and trying to hurt someone's future over it is total and complete BS. I am glad he is gone and I don't think he should ever be welcome here.
