Interesting idea for a non-fiction book, but patchily written and repetitive.

As a woman from Minnesota this book opened my eyes to a very different world and type of existence.

I first read about the people in the Vegas tunnels years ago and had always wanted to know more about them. I'm always fascinated by the extremes of the human condition. When I saw this book at the neon museum on my first visit to sin city I started reading it at once.
It provides a fascinating tour through the underworld. In general I liked the travelogue style taken by the writer, though sometimes it can seen almost like a book report or procrastinated school assignment. With space stretching tangents and bouts of self-doubt.
Still, this is a book I don't think I'll ever forget.

A journalist in Las Vegas takes a summer off and explores the storm drains of the city and chronicles what he finds there. He meets interesting people and has strange experiences. This is a great book. Well written and intriguing.
