    fairly interesting but not a lot of new info
  

*by P***. on Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2012*

This is an interesting account of one man's relationship and experiences with Bobby Fischer in Iceland. There are interesting insights into Bobby but some of the writing is awkward, the time shifts can be confusing, and some passages are difficult to understand. In my opinion there's also far too much focus on the author in some chapters. I wanted to read about Bobby Fischer, not the author. This book clearly shows that Bobby Fischer was not the mad man as he was made out to be by the media. Yes, he had a temper and he spoke his mind, but he wasn't mentally ill. It left me feeling sorry for the life he had to endure due to political manipulations, specifically at the hands of the US government. A short book, but a fairly good read, although the price seems a bit steep considering that there's not a lot of really new information in it.

    Wonderful Primary Source on the Final Years of Fischer’s Life
  

*by R***Y on Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2020*

I loved this book. It’s interesting to get a perspective of Fischer from someone who spoke to him regularly after Fischer adopted his antisemitic and anti-American views. If you’re looking for a more comprehensive account of Fischer’s life, especially before the 1972 Workd Chess Championship match, I recommend Frank Brady’s book.
