I had never heard of cryonics before, and saw this book on a library sale shelf and thought it sounded interesting. The story was pretty interesting, but could have been a bit better organized (suddenly he tells us something else that happened in the past when it could have been included in the section of the book dealing with that timeframe, since it was mostly chronological.) It never really got that exciting, even though it's a true story of an unregulated industry/company hiding its misdeeds and going after the whistleblower. Took me a while to read it, as I often chose to read other books instead.

After finishing it, I am shocked that the cryonics industry is unregulated or even allowed to continue, given what they are doing. And even more shocked that people pay them for the "service."

Be forewarned: barbaric descriptions of how they freeze people's bodies, with some nasty photos included.

Took a while to finish because it wasn't as exciting as some books,but it's a true story."
