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
Ted Leventhal, Booklist
Davis Miller continues to invent a powerful new form of writing
Richard Martyn, Toronto Star
After telling his own story, Miller moves to Lee's saga, gently debunking many myths
Library Journal
A martial arts Nick Hornby, Miller is illuminating about the ability to transform oneself no matter what the circumstances
The Times
Often poignant, always potent . . . Miller has created a place where New Journalism comfortably collides with traditional reporting and timeless storytelling
Winston-Salem Journal
Easygoing but unflippant, formless yet rigorous. Solid reporting and sumptuous storytelling. Miller's is an American voice attractive to Brits
Tim Birch, The Guardian
A really interesting, beautifully written book with amazingly random but cool distinctions like: Lee was a Confucian in a Taoist's clothing
Lee Smith, Slate Magazine
I loved Davis Miller's The Tao of Bruce Lee, a book about hero worship
Tony Parsons, author Man and Boy, Daily Mail
