Each character has a different voice, and all stories are interested. I have trouble trying to understand why this book is not more popular amongst readers and BEE fans alike.             I Was a Killer for the Hells Angels: The Story of Serge Quesnal7 reviews Pierre Martineau McClelland & Stewart, 2003 I was a killer for the Hells Angels: The Story of Serge Not a very good or entertaining book.

If this book were a novel, I think it might be dismissed as implausible. Yet sadly, the account of the meteoric rise and staggering demise of an executive at one of America's largest companies is all too true. The twists and turns are incredible!

My son loved the whole series! He is a picky reader. He does not like fantasy and that is mostly what is written for boys these days. The Ivan books are historical fiction at its best.
