I've just finished reading Bill Hicks: Agent Of Evolution. It claims to be "the definitive biography by his lifelong friend". It's awful. Really, really, terribly awful. It seems like it didn't have an editor, the supposed lifelong friend spends a large proportion of his time talking about himself, and the "let's have a few people retell the same period over and over" style means you're constantly getting the same crap from different angles, and not in any sort of an interesting way. Frankly, I'm sorry I bought this; Bill Hicks deserves better.

Thanks for the warning ;) I do have one book here on him that D bought me a few years ago (by Cynthia someone, I think) but I've never actually read it...
