" He was pretty impressed with himself and liked to talk about the awesome things he did. He talks about the awesome things he did a LOT. But he really did do some cool things so it is fun to read even through the self-glorification. "

" The first half of this book was superb, and really showed the nitty-gritty insides of the FBI. However, once the second half kicked in, it began to drag, and I lost interest in it almost completely. The second half wasn't bad, but I thought it simply wasn't necessary. Overall: good. "

" Not an amazing non-fiction book, but a good reference book for anyone interested in the FBI or HRT. Additionally, its got a pretty good recounting of Ruby Ridge and Waco; events I was definitely not familiar with before reading this book. "
