New Book: Dream Team: How Michael, Magic, Larry, Charles, and the Greatest Team of All Time Conquered the World and Changed the Game of Basketball Forever by Jack McCallum

I finished reading Perfume: The Story of a Murderer by Patrick Süskind a few weeks ago.  It was pretty good.  It was about an 18th Century French orphan with extraordinary olfactory powers and, oddly enough, no discernible body scent himself.  He comes to work for a perfumer in Paris and learns how to make great perfumes, since people back then reeked.  After that ends, he lives alone in the wilderness for a few years, then goes to a small town in the French countryside, where he slaughters young girls and uses their essences to create the most enchanting scent ever.  It was an interesting book, and a pretty easy read.

I have since started Dream Team: How Michael, Magic, Larry, Charles, and the Greatest Team of All Time Conquered the World and Changed the Game of Basketball Forever by Jack McCallum.  As the title implies, it's about the Dream Team.
