Very enlightening, witty and enthralling in places. An honest insight into a world most of us will never encounter - neither apologetic nor written as a self-defence. Uncomfortable to read in places, and seems to gloss over parts, but definitely worth sticking with. It's worth remembering that although this book reads a bit like a novel, it is an autobiography, so the end seems a bit abrupt - a worthy excuse for reading Mr. Marks' other books, if only just to find out what happens next.

It was quite interesting but he does come across as a smug git lots of the time. It was a relief when he eventually got caught.
I never got round to reading this when the rest of the world was a decade ago.   I had to put it down for a month or so in the middle as it became a little monotonous.
