About this listen

'It was just after dawn on Thursday, November 14, 1991. The hatch on the cell door slid back. I could see the screw's face through the slit. I've seen better heads on a pig dog, but this time I could have kissed him.'

Underworld standover man and executioner Mark Brandon 'Chopper' Read was released from Pentridge Prison in November, 1991, vowing never to return. He became an instant celebrity when his autobiography Chopper: From the Inside hit the bestseller lists (it also holds the record as Australia's most shoplifted book). Six months later, he was back in jail charged with the shooting of a biker, and busy writing his second volume of memoirs.

In this sequel, Chopper gives us more stories of crime and criminals that made his first book an international publishing sensation, from bookie robberies to hitmen, slavery and kidnapping.

Enjoyed this when I wasn't really expecting to after how great his first book was. Really made me laugh and the narrator made it feel like it was chopper himself telling me stories.

Great sequel

The reading was a bit slow, the story could of been improved but as chopper said “I wrote several best sellers and I can’t even beady read ,” . I definitely like listening to his story and working out what is B.S. and the truth? We all know that chopper was a big story teller?
