    Brought this book yesterday from Dymocks for $9.99, down from 49.99 so a bargin if any one is interested! I got it from the store on Broadway, Newmarket.

    Sounds like a good deal. Pity Wellington doesn't have a Dymocks anymore.

    yOU going that way again anytime soon? I'd be keen on a copy for that price but can't be stuffed going to newmarket to get one. Otherwise I'll just have to borrow yours Can swap Croz (which is probably the better read, as Hanna's books I've found a bit dull in the past).

    I have both, and agree that Croz is a better, and easier read. It seemed to take forever to finish the Kim Newcombe book.

    Started reading it ages ago but gradually got worn down by too much detail. Probably expected an adventure type book in contrast to what almost seems to read as heavily as a text book. Maybe the forward set the tone. I'll pick it up again one day but doubt that I will re-read from the beginning. "Croz" on the other hand was exciting and didn't seem to bog down as much . It spent more time on the track and less in the pits.
