Read this book and give it fo your friends

Having read all three of Weisbecker's books, getting a copy of Zen and Zero, and telling as many people as I can about his work through emails, myspace, and facebook, In Search of Captain Zero is probably one of my favorite books. Its a great one to jump into, especially if you are into Hunter S. Thompson, truth, humor, and can handle a couple of downer moments they pleae read this book. I first ready Cosmic Bandidos in the course of three hours, drove the book back to a friend and quickly stole Captain Zero, finished it two days later, then waited patiently for CYGAWA. Read all of the books, but go with Zero first.

soft cover in print

As the author of this book i can tell you it's available in soft cover: amazon has its head up its arse in not listing it. i've tried contacting them but i only get a boilerplate replies that make no sense. as far as i can tell, there are no human beings involved with amazon.

buy from your local bookstore anyway.

hey amazon, in the unlikely event that an actual human reads this:how about listing the softcover, which IS IN PRINT from Penguin. then you can cancel this cranky review.

Inspiring Journey

This is a fantastic, inspiring story, not to mention a cautionary tale, in the true spirit of the soul surfer adventurer. Warning: Weisbecker's previous book, Cosmic Bandits (I think) is horrible. But this one is great.

In 1996, Allan Weisbecker sold his home and his possessions, loaded his dog and surfboards into his truck, and set off in search of his long-time surfing companion, Patrick, who had vanished into the depths of Central America. In this rollicking memoir of his quest from Mexico to Costa Rica to unravel the circumstances of Patrick's disappearance, Weisbecker intimately describes the people he befriended, the bandits he evaded, the waves he caught and lost en route to finding his friend.

In Search of Captain Zero is, according to Outside magazine, "A subtly affecting tale of friendship and duty. [It] deserves a spot on the microbus dashboard as a hell of a cautionary tale about finding paradise and smoking it away."
