    Iceman - Richard Kuklinski

    I think I seen some footage of him in ESB somewhere along the line and YUK'....I could not watch him nor could I read a book about his lifes killings. Once upon a time when I was looking for a book to read I stumbled across Ivan Milat's story, I have no interest in reading about sickening killings...But each to their own!

    Robot, if you like reading books about sick *******s, get "Shankill Butchers". I reckon you won't read a better one in it's genre.

    Mate some of what they did was gruesome. The writing is both factual and descriptive. There were times reading about what they did I had to kinda compose to read on. It was that foul...

    When I went over to Belfast. Trust me, that's watered down compared to the book. Not that the author tries to embellish the story in any way, he just tells it like it happened. Definitely get it, if you get the chance. It kept me glued to it.

    The North of Ireland is easily one of the more enthralling places I've been to. All of Ireland is fascinating. So much history....so many pubs! :)
