If you are a fan of the Discovery Channel's show "The Deadliest Catch" then chances are you will be a fan of "Time Bandit". It was a fanatastic look into the thoughts and lives of two of the show's main co-captains, Jonathon and Andy Hillstrand, captains and owners of the F/V Time Bandit. Chock full of suspense, drama, and fishing tales it's captures everything we have come to love from the Hillstrand boys.
I will say one negative about the book though that a number of readers have already picked up on. The book was defintely NOT worded or spoken the way that we would expect Jonathon or Andy to speak. Having said that you know from watching Deadliest Catch that neither Jonathon nor Andy are authors so you would have to expect all their fishing tales, and life stories to be worded in such a way to "reel in" literary readers.
If you can get past that minor glitch than strap on your white cowboy hats, and do the crab jig because you are in for one heck of a read
