A martial arts Nick Hornby, Miller is illuminating about the ability to transform oneself no matter what the circumstances

Easygoing but unflippant, formless yet rigorous. Solid reporting and sumptuous storytelling. Miller's is an American voice attractive to Brits

I loved Davis Miller's The Tao of Bruce Lee, a book about hero worship

This fantastic second book by Miller runs deeper than an account of the author growing up as a 'karate kid' in the early 1970s. It is equally a study of the nature and role of the hero in popular culture, a poignant and unusual coming-of-age story, and an informative biography of Bruce Lee

Davis Miller continues to invent a powerful new form of writing

After telling his own story, Miller moves to Lee's saga, gently debunking many myths

Often poignant, always potent . . . Miller has created a place where New Journalism comfortably collides with traditional reporting and timeless storytelling

A really interesting, beautifully written book with amazingly random but cool distinctions like: Lee was a Confucian in a Taoist's clothing

The stars are, inevitably, Hinault and LeMond themselves, both with their own memories of what did and did not happen. But they're almost outshone by three of the supporting cast... How true was Hinauolt to his word in 1986? Was he just stirring it up or did he actually try to give the French what they wanted from him, a sixth Tour victory? Well that's the story Richard Moore tells in Slaying The Badger. And some stories you really do have to read for yourselves

The tale of the spectator Lemond-Hinault rivalry over the roads of the 'greatest ever' Tour de France in 1986 is hardly unknown for most cycling fan - and yet Moore magnificently offers a fresh perspective, bringing alive this supreme tussle by resorting to some vintage toilet humour... His book is a gripping read

[Moore] entertainingly unravels the complexities of the relationships within the peloton

One of Bike Radar’s favourite books of the past 12 months

Moore unearths a dazzling array of detail through interviews and anecdotes, telling a tale that holds suspense even for those who know the ultimate outcome of this epic battle. As racing books go, Moore’s book just might be “the greatest ever"

The measure of a great book is a great start.Richard Moore’s introductory anecdote in Slaying the Badger set a new standard in cycling literature
