"A wonderful new book...excellent...outstanding work!" ~ Vince Gilligan

Better Call Saul chronicles the transformation of a decent, likable guy named Jimmy McGill into Saul Goodman, the morally bankrupt lawyer we met on Breaking Bad.

Why You Better Call Saul: What Our Favorite TV Lawyer Says About Life, Love, and Scheming Your Way to Acquittal and a Large Cash Payout examines the many faces of our favorite fictional lawyer, as well as other characters in the Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul universe:

  • To what extent does Jimmy/Saul bend -- or break -- the rules to which attorneys are bound?
  • What do Jimmy McGill and Mike Ehrmantraut have in common with Dexter Morgan?
  • What do Jimmy's most important relationships teach us about the effect of outside influences on one's psyche?
  • How do Saul Goodman and Walter White break free of societal constraints?
  • How does Saul manipulate the media in order to promote his legal services? Is he defined by his tacky advertisements?
  • And much more ...
