Chopper 3.
A loner since his strict Seventh Day Adventist childhood, Mark Brandon Read grew into a streetfighter, standover man, gunman and underworld executioner. Although feared throughout the Australian crime world, Read admits to being a criminal failure' because he has spent most of his adult life in jail. But he has become a notorious celebrity as his crime memoirs have topped bestseller lists. Now self-styled 'writer in residence' at Tasmania's Risdon Prison, he has completed his third volume of memoirs. This is it. 
 
Chopper from The Inside.
Mark Brandon Read is the son of a strict Seventh Day Adventist mother and a war stressed soldier who slept with a loaded gun at his side. Bullied at school, he grew up dreaming of revenge, determined to be the toughest in any company. He became a crime commando who terrorised drug dealers, pimps, thieves and armed robbers on the streets and in jail — but boasts he never hurt an innocent member of the public. From street fighter to standover man, gunman to underworld executioner, he has been earmarked for death a dozen times but has lived to tell the tale. This is it.
