Title: The best story of its kind
Review: I read "The Executioner's Song" when it first came out in 1979 and it still has the powerful punch today. The story grabs you and doesn't let go, and even though it is very long, it feels a bit shorter. The Kindle edition is easy to read and worth every penny, and certainly better than carrying around an 1100 page book. The only reason I give the book 4 stars (which is really 4 1/2) instead of 5 is that at the end of the book, for the last 200 pages or so, it tends to drag a bit. It is considered by some, including me, to be Mailer's best book. If you haven't read it and enjoy true crime drama, download it now.
