Surprising

Surprising! This book was a bit of different stories. They were ok but the last one surprised me. I enjoyed the book.

I love all Iceberg Slim literary works.

Slim is truly an unsung genius. He so eloquently depicts the pitfalls and triumphs of the hazardous underworld!
The narrator Cary Hite should also be nominated for some kind of Audible award. His intonation, enunciation, and lucid delivery will keep you at the edge of your seat. Great experience!

Another Iceberg special

good listen, stories took you through so many emotions. . . . . .

The streets don't love you...

Yet sadly many folks love the streets it seems. Iceberg continues with more gritty drama and a streetacular synopsis of lives only known by those that live it.

all of ice berg slims books are mind catching

love the way they narrated the story kept my interest on the story love it

Another slim

Always enjoy the narrator, he makes you feel that you are right there witnessing the story in a secret place

Tales from the Hood before tales from the hood

Each tale is vivid and awesome. It could easily be made into a creepshow type movie

Something different… to say the least!

Interesting story… these were some different as* stories! I can not say that I liked, or disliked this book.

Okay

I gave this three stars as it was kind of middle of the road for me. Prior to this book, I'd just finished Iceberg Slim's "The Naked Soul of Iceberg Slim" which was amazing & seemed to mention his book "Pimp" a number of times; making me think I'll give it a try. This is alright though, just not up to the high standards of "The Naked Soul of Iceberg Slim."
