Just got shawn michaels new book and it was an excellent read. Thought id get some more wrestlers autobiographies/biographies, i saw Kanes but it all seems like a load of made up stuff. Has anyone read it, if so is it any good. Also is there any other wrestling books you can recomend

Yeah, like someone already said, Kane's is a novel, not a bio.
I'd recommend:
'Pure Dynamite' (Dynamite Kid Tom Billington)
'Have A Nice Day' & 'Foley Is Good' (Mick Foley)(self written)
'Adam Copeland on Edge' (Edge)(self written)
-Ric Flair and Jerry Lawler's books aren't bad.
-The Hardy Boyz book is ok, it's done differently to all the others.
-Hulk Hogan's book is hilarious, for all the wrong reasons.
-Goldberg's is just meh.
-Wrestlecrap is pretty good but it's not a bio book, just a look @ some of the stupider things in 'rasslin.
-I suppose it's worth reading The Rock's book the once but a lot of it is naff.
-AVOID CHYNA'S BOOK
-I haven't read it yet but I'm gonna guess that Eric Bischoff's book should be pretty good.
Peace.

Kane book is so good but its fiction based on the Character of Kane but you get an inside look to his character and u get to know why he is the way he is today its really good i would give it 10 stars its good read

Both Mick Foley's books are really good.
Even his novel which he wrote, not about wrestling, called "Tietam Brown" is worth a read. "The Wrestling" by Simon Garfield is qiite good if you are into the history of UK wrestling. Also if you can get you hands on "Wrestlecrap" or "The Death of WCW" both well worth a look.
Kurt Angle's is not bad but is ghost-written.
Goldbergs book is also ghost-written - is okay but not great.
Avoid the Rock & Chyna's efforts. Also the Hardy boys book is unreadable cr*p.

I thought it was good but not as good as Chyna's.It was an autobiography I like them more than just all show business you get to learn who the real person is.

I read it last week, it was ok, just a fictional story about the character Kane, not about the real life of Glen Jacobs, which I would prefer to read...
