Reviews

"...this is more than a testosterone cocktail of a memoir. It's a joy ride..." -- Los Angeles Times"...highly entertaining insider's look at the world of high-stakes, high-octane, high-risk road rallies.... Roy writes with enthusiasm and with a novelist's sense of pacing and character. The book is so good, so filled with color and adrenaline, that it plays out like a movie in your mind." -- Booklist (starred review)
