The book is actually pretty interesting when it comes to the content of the interviews with the porn stars. But the writing style is so grating that it's all you can do to wade through it. Skee seems more intent on letting you know that he is REALLY, REALLY good friends with all these guys and that he has either seen them naked or they have flirted with him or similar utter nonsense.

So, great idea, scary execution.

Yes, the interviewer does talk about himself a lot, but it sounds like he's been in the business a long time and he's someone who has given a true face to these guys. No other reviews or interviews I've read about these stars (and I'm big fans of ones like Will Clark and Cole Tucker) have had anything as revealing as these. Wait 'til you read about Adam Hart, there's more new stuff about Rex Chandler than anything, and I have the world's largest collection on him.

Mickey may brag about knowing all these studs, but he doesn't flirt with them, in fact, he keeps a proper journalistic distance. We just all wish we were him, that's all.

It was a pleasure to read about some of the 'classic' stars which are no longer in the business. It is interesting to compare their comments to the newcomers comments. Some of them haven't given interviews before and come up with some interesting answers to the questions. Fast read. Makes you want to read the second in this series with other interviews.

Mickey Skee's book is a lot of fun. He chose a wide variety of stars from different age groups and backgrounds. Mickey Skee is obviously very adept at getting his subjects at ease with being interviewed. I noticed that he revealed that some of the stars who were given accolades for their performances as "bottoms" tended to be somewhat embarrassed and uncomfortable with that honor. (Maybe honor should be in quotes in that case...) Overall, Skee shows us that these seemingly unattainable stars have likable personalities, and are often quite charming.

I've never read a more revealing interview about my favorite star, and this is it, now that he's retired. He trashes Falcon and people he's worked with, and other stars talk about how they first realized how they knew what they were packing, etc. Great stuff!

This is one pompous interview book, but I have to admit, one of the best ones out there. Skee's always shoving it in our faces how he's the "best friend" to these guys, and how he's on the inside, taking the guys into the hot tub and meeting them at bath houses....why doesn't he tell us about having sex with these guys too? it seems like he does. Anyway, it's a good transcript book, as long as you can get through Mickey Skee's incredible "I was there and you weren't" attitude. He's cute, look at the photo in the book! I wonder what HIS dimensions are? I'm asking, do tell!

This book opened my eyes to what felt like a secret world that hovers on the fringe of society. I was enthralled. Mickey Skee's interviews felt very honest and open, and the men were brave to share their feelings with him. It really ran the gamut of the new guys to the pros, all of whom had something unique to contribute to the book. Excellent.

it was fun to hear about these porn stars real lifes and it was a quick book to read. the interviews were well written and it was interesting to see they were real people too

"The interviews are . Skee doesn't patronize his subjects, and he's willing to ask hard questions about, among other things, their off-screen sexuality." - Onan the Vulgarian, XXX Factor (Phoenix)
