“You need to understand something, Kevin. From the moment you walk into the casino to the moment you leave, they’re watching you.”
“Kevin’s world became a schizophrenic blend of grey reality and brightly colored fantasy.”
“Don’t be naive. Nobody wins in Las Vegas. Kevin Lewis knows that better than anyone.”
“The long-running New York Times bestseller that has become a cultural phenomenon, Bringing Down the House is an action-filled caper carried out by the unlikeliest of cons – supersmart geeks.”
“The #1 national bestseller, now a major motion picture, 21—the amazing inside story about a gambling ring of M.I.T. students who beat the system in Vegas—and lived to tell how.”
“Ben Mezrich digs up real-life tales that are almost too incredible to believe, then turns them into bestselling books—and that has transformed the one-time Harvard geek into the bigshot writer he always wanted to be. Now, with the movie version of his breakout, Bringing Down the House, coming to theaters, there are nagging questions about just how far Mezrich stretches the facts in his fantastic yarns.”
“Bringing Down the House is Mezrich’s first work of non-fiction, but he didn’t cast away his skills as a novelist when he sat down to write this book. The third-person narrative tracks the progress of the book’s main character, “Kevin Lewis”, through his time with the fabled MIT Blackjack Team.”
