Shaun AttwoodPablo Escobar: Beyond Narcos

Good book, I read all the Pablo Escobar books out on the market, this one did not disappoint.

I received a pirated book, had to return and purchase the different one.

Whilst there is plenty of detail, I found the writing style to be a bit like a list of facts squeezed together to form the narrative. This made the prose rather staccato and a bit difficult and sometimes confusing to read. I've read other works by the author that are much more satisfying so am not sure why this book appears to be written in this way. I wasn't too keen on the structure of the book either as it seemed to jump about quite a bit and the references to his other books buried within the text were a bit cynical IMO. Overall it wasn't all that bad but, again, in my humble opinion, certainly not worth the 5* that every other reviewer seems to have given it.

This is the most detailed book I've read about Pablo Escobar. It gives alot of insight into his life and history of The Medellin Cartel. It's also is a MUST OWN for anyone studying Colombian history or anyone that wants to learn more about the Netflix series "NARCOS"I learned alot and now know the TRUE story of his rise/fall. I loved every page and was hooked from the first chapter. Shaun Attwood does a great job with this one... The whole series of these books I find so fascinating. I can't wait until Book 3 of his "War On Drugs" series is released. I own this one, American Made, and the Cali Cartel. All of which are tremendously written and truthful. This book and series gets a solid 10/10 from me. Definitely one I'll be reading again.
