Enjoyed this book as a good follow up to The Crew. Didnt see the ending coming at all.
Dougie Brimson doesnt pull his punches, not in his storeys nor in his writing style. Brimson, in a nutshell, is not afraid to write the truth as he sees it. Unlike a lot of authors, hes not afraid of his heroes. Most authors cant resist writing a little bit of decency into their hero, but in Billy Evans Brimson has created an antihero with no redeeming features whatsoever, no nobility of mind or spirit at all. The reader doesnt even like him.Can I say something nice about him? Hes loyal to his
Just felt like the author had two stories in mind about the main character & didn't know how to finish the first or how to start the second - so just bundled them up together. The first part of the book has an interesting twist to a pair of football hooligans attempting to turn into a respectable businessmen - can they get away with it. Then a short middle section - oh yes they got away with it but one is happy & one is bored - now where do we go from here. Final part takes an unexpected
Overindulgent poorly written rubbish.
As far fetched as horse muck from China, but still an entertaining read. Billy Evans returns from his Italy escapades in the first novel and decides to diversify his 'business' interests set against the hooligan world of the CSS crew at West Ham. A few twists and turns along the way help keep the reader engrossed in the story.
Gritty while retaining an edge of cutting humour against a very tough environment. This is a page-turner which has just made it's way to the big screen in an award winning movie directed by Martin Kemp. Dougie Brimson knows how to keep the reader engaged.
