I cannot put this book down. The pictures are some of the best I've ever seen. I especially liked his philisophical views on winning and losing. I also like the way he leaves us wanting for more. I hope he writes a sequal very soon!!!

I think Elvis Stojko: Heart & Soul is a beautiful book and a must-have for fans of Elvis. The photos of Elvis both on and off the ice are spectacular. I especially enjoyed the photos of his off-ice interests such as martial arts, jetskiing and dirt-bike riding. The text gives fans an understanding of Elvis' philosophy and is inspiring.
A Must For All Elvis Fans!

This book is filled with wonderful color photos of Elvis, skating and even some personal ones. Elvis descibes his skating career and his philsophies of skating and his love for martial arts and how the two interrelate.
Heart & Soul shows most of Elvis' soul but not all.

I think Elvis' first attempt at writing was mostly a success. I loved his pictures of himself. Elvis had a little to much repetition like in his training before Canadians. He needs to learn how to say more with less, and offer more content for us to read. I gave him a 9 out of ten on Heart & Soul because Elvis only gave part of his heart & soul in his book about skating. Otherwise, his first book, of which I hope he will have many, was well written. Maybe next time he could do a novel style book instead. Most of us already have lots of video and pictures of Elvis, although a few more won't hurt. I bought Heart & Soul to find out where Elvis' head was spiritually and it didn't help me to understand, but it was a fun read. I would say, that all of Elvis' fans would have a great time reading his book, so I hope Elvis writes another book soon
