"We love Deadliest Catch, and this book is by the two Hillstrand brothers from the Time Bandit. It was very well-written, and alternated chapters between the two authors, working well between the past and the present. Johnathan is funny and poetic at the same time, and Andy is very intelligent and much different than the persona you see on the show in his writing. Some of the stories made me laugh out loud, particularly the ones about Hot Dog Finger. Some of the information about their lives as adults with respect to marriages/relationships is sad, but the book is wonderful, and the pictures inside are great. I definitely recommend the book if you like the show."
"I enjoyed this book but it is definitely not for those with "Victorian" ears... I laughed often and my interest was maintained. At the same time I am not saying this is a well written literary piece. It is as I thought it would be - rough and tumble."
"Okay... I love the show "Deadliest Catch." When I found out about this book, I wanted to read it right away. I gotta say, this was one of the most exciting and poorly-written books I've ever read. Yep. I was excited to read it. And I laughed out loud several time while reading in reaction to the fact that this was actually a book that tried to have a through-line. That may sound confusing. But it's 100% true. This book was basically just Jonathan talking about the fights he's been in, the trucks he's owned, the women he's slept with all peppered together with stories about successful and horrible fishing trips in the quest for crab on the Bering Sea. Andy shares some of the story. But his is much more subdued and balanced with is alter-ego as a horse wrangler and trainer in southern Indiana. Jonathan fishes, fights, gets drunk and rides his bike. The 3rd author of the story TRIES to keep it all together and give this book at least an outline. Alas... it fails. But if you like the show, you'll like the book. If you don't know what you're getting yourself into, don't bother."
"Hunh. Apparently crab fishermen sound like Ernest Hemmingway when they write. The book was terrific, the style not so much. If you can get past the pedantic prose, the story will capture just about anyone's interest regardless of whether they watch the show or not."
