Book Reviews of A Lion's Tale: Around the World in Spandex
Book Review: Foley was right to worry...
Summary: 5 Stars
One of the comments on the back of this book is Mick Foley tongue in cheek wondering if it will be regarding funnier than his. It is. The only reason I have put this book down since picking it up is time constraints. It is in depth without being long winded and covers his life and career up to his first WWE debut - a great place to start a sequel if he chooses to write one, and if he doesn't, "reaching his dream" is also a good place to finish this book. It is funny throughout but serious where necessary. His descriptions on fellow wrestlers are full, i.e. he doesn't always go on first impressions. It gives an insight into the wrestling business worldwide. He shows confidence in his abilities throughout but is not afraid to critique himself either. Overall a very enjoyable read.
