Never Die Alone

By: Donald Goines

Narrated by: Leon Nixon

Donald Goines, one of the most prolific writers of the 20th century, has influenced many of today's urban writers with his gritty, realistic look at the streets. Now, his classic expose of a drug dealer's brutal rise to the top of Cocaine Mountain is available for the first time in audio to attract new audiences, as well as longtime fans of the legend himself.

King David was determined to claw his way out of the mean streets of New York City any way he could. It didn't matter if that meant battering and robbing old people, conning the innocent, or even killing a kid's mother. Lacing cocaine with battery acid for revenge was acceptable, too. Ultimately, it meant leaving town. Now King's made it big and made his way back, flush with cash and a Cadillac. But he hasn't been forgotten - or forgiven. And when payback time hits, he's only got one wish - not to die alone.

Review

Donald Goines. The Afro Goat. This is one of his best. A real page turner.

The style of Mr.Goines writing is brilliant

I read every book Mr.Goines had published when I was a teenager. To hear it aloud was priceless. The men that have been chosen to bring it to life did an extraordinary job it was as if the author himself was doing the reading.

Slow start but helluva story

Very dark story, not for the weak of heart or judgmental type. Shows the game from a grimmie view point. And how revenge can and will consume you.

Dark and True

This book is one of Donald Goines darkest, it is a dark tale. It tells the true about street life, the up and downs, the betrayals and selfishness. Well written and good.

Good Story

Good Story This is a crazy story! At times it was a little difficult to follow but I enjoyed it.

Another Gripping Story by Goines

Goines does it again in writing a gripping story that shows you how the world was and is.

King David and the battery acid.

The story is good but the movie Never Die Alone was more darker than the audio book.

Felt Incomplete

Decent story, but not one of my favorites from Mr. Goines. Just left me wanting more story.

BORING

i listened because I started and had to finish. it was boring I kept falling asleep
