In this engaging memoir, Froome recalls his childhood in Nairobi, gives a vividly evoked account of his victory and doesn't attempt to gloss over the rivalry between the two Team Sky riders

Hard to beat for a top pro's perspective

Froome's story is an intriguing one

A brutally tough upbringing

The key to (Chris's) success is his mental resilience. He might look like an unlikely strong man at first glance, but I wouldn't let that fool you. Beneath the surface there is a real fighter. He's a tough guy

Chris Froome is an absolutely phenominal athlete. It blows my mind how incredible his performances have been

Even though we don't see each other so much anymore he has lived in my dreams. He (was) wearing the yellow jersey every day and I almost felt I was wearing it myself

Just a few years ago we did not have anyone who could podium, but now we have two cyclists who can win the Tour in consecutive years. It is a phenomenal achievement and what Chris has done is phenomenal

[Krien] writes honestly and brilliantly. Night Games is a book that was begging to be written. Readers should exult that Krien got there first.

One of the most incredible works of investigative non-fiction that I have ever read. Krien is nuanced and fiercely intelligent and every paragraph is addictive.

Heady mix of courtroom drama and narrative journalism… Not for the fainthearted, but highly compelling

Fearless, balanced and powerful.

Plenty of…jaw-dropping details make it an uncomfortable journey, but it’s an illuminating one as Krien shines a light inside the locker room and beyond

The deserving winner of this year's William Hill Sports Book of the Year award

This is a breakthrough book by one of the leading young lights of Australian writing

Despite it being an almost impossible subject to write about, Krien has produced a brilliant, disarming, thought-provoking book

A thought-provoking book that every aspiring male footballer should be made to read…as part of their apprenticeship

A worthy, if unexpected, winner

A depressing but essential read

an intelligent and unsettling exploration of how sport’s macho culture and exclusion of women enable abuse
