"I enjoyed this look into the life of Chuck Norris. He is an interesting man and quite different then I expected him to be. A religious man with honor, ethics and integrity. Very likeable. The book tells about his life as a karate fighter and actor. For me this was a different kind of book compared to what I usually read, but I enjoyed it very much."
"Highly interesting autobiography of Chuck Norris detailing his growth and faith journey from his rough beginnings to present. Highly refreshing story of someone whose faith has not been undermined by fame and has used it to make a difference in the world around him."
"Chuck Norris seemed to be bragging alot. It was interesting but the attitude was "all me". In comparrison, The Great 8 by Scott Hamilton seemed a lot more humble."
"This book was really shows what Chuck Norris went through. A lot of people like him because of the fake facts that are made up on him. They show him being a super strong and not having any problems because he can solve them with fighting. He was just a normal kid who grew up with problems. When I read this book I gained a new respect for Chuck Norris."
