Kill Your Friends by John Niven
3.0
Kill Your Friends chronicles a year in the life of the most foul, greedy, base, unapologetic antagonist I've ever loved. If the novel is — as critics have said — truly a realistic portrait of the music industry, it's eye-opening.
Entertaining in not just a 'dark' way, but in a black, bottom of the hole kind of way, the novel was as much my vice as it's characters own cocaine habits. A definite page turner, I kept awaiting the day Stelfox would reconsider his ruinous, avaricious path, but found myself not entirely disappointed that day never seemed to come and Stelfox's greed and ambition drove him to his destination fairly unscathed.
Kill Your Friends was a ride I happened upon, thoroughly enjoyed, and am deliriously happy that I don't have to travel along with, pimping it out to ticket holders and passing it off as my own day-to-day.
