This book was the best thing I have ever read. I love all the action. I would deffinately love to show it to my friends.

I loved this book; it captured a real loveable oaf named Alfred Kropp. The characters and storyline were realistic and original. I couldn't see why he didn't have more buddies though. I've read the second book and it was okay, but not even comparable to the first. I'm planning on buying the third one sometime this year but I can't find it around anywhere. All these cliff hanger endings and deaths are driving me crazy.

Alfred Kropp, was a awesome book. It had some amounts of gore( I thought that was pretty cool.) The characters made the book really exciting. I can't wait to read the next one!!!!!
