Prison Days: Screw'd Up Kindle Edition

by Simon King (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.4 out of 5 stars 231 ratings

Stabbings. Rapes. Murders. This is Maximum-Security.

Simon King spent years inside one of the country’s worst maximum-security facilities, guarding those considered society’s worst offenders. With the popular Prison Days series, Simon shared the day-to-day events of a job many consider too risky to try themselves. It tells of a nightmare world behind the walls, of incidents considered too extreme by the general public. Discover murders, rapes, stabbings, assaults, as well as the human toll such actions took on the staff.

But throughout that series, Simon remained neutral, telling the stories with an unbiased voice, to give readers the opportunity to experience the events as close to the real thing as possible, so they could make their own mind up. This time, there’s no holding back, with the harsh reality of prison life told from one man’s perspective. It’s not just another prison story.

Prison Days: Screw’d Up is a confronting retelling of a career where murder, assaults, and suicides are considered just another part of the workday.

Get ready to experience prison like never before, as you go behind the walls of maximum-security and discover one of the darkest places on Earth.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Privately Run Prison
    Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2022
    Verified Purchase
    I’ve read all 13 books in the series. Finally realized the prison is located in Australia. Didn’t realize it was a privately run prison. Is that why each cell has a shower, the prisoners get their own tv, their own tea kettle, etc. Does this apply to all prisons in Australia or just a privately run one. Or are all prisons in Australia privately run? I highly recommend reading the series.

    5.0 out of 5 stars prison for profit: cut the staffing way down beyond merely dangerous levels.
    Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2023
    Verified Purchase
    Eye-opener of the most extreme sort.
    It isn’t TV. It is a real prison with real people as inmates and staff.
    It is scary.
    It is informative.
    It is enough to make me want to stay the hell out of prison.

    That was quite a tour. For sure prison work is interesting and totally unpredictable. I feel positive it's not for me! But I enjoyed reading about Simon's run. It's been some great reading. Prepare for some cringe worthy gore, because that's what happens in prison.

    I am so thankful for Simon, he took the trip many of us dreamed and wondered about, then related it all to us so we could experience it from afar.
    I know so much happened throughout his journey and he will have to try to keep the good memories and send the bad down the "prison phone line"

    3.0 out of 5 stars Contempt disguised as nonjudgement.
    Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2023
    Verified Purchase
    I don't know how to review this book. Over the course of reading this series my perceptions have altered. I do wonder why anyone would feel an obsessive need to work in a prison and consider it their destiny. Only to end up loathing it. Funny, at the beginning of this book King relates a story about how a person is never judged for the 99 things he does right but the one thing he does wrong. He thinks its about him. Oh he does judge these men but he isn't above exploiting them to use as fodder for his stories. He s paid while he writes at midnight. Maybe that's the biggest crime in this book. Without prison he'd have nothing to write about. All stories draw upon life. At what point does it become exploitation? Of course, and King taunts his readers with it, you don't want to read a out the boring nights. Hello penny dreadful. Well, as someone who's lived in low rent trailer parks perhaps not all that different in their own way, where normal isn't like I believed before, it isn't boring ,but it is stressful but you get so used to the drama you need it. A quality a need of sociopaths. And it helps if you can't feel empathy. And I shouldn't say this but ... well I have ancestors who ended up as ashes due to guards only following the rules. And its made for a lot of books. What I don't see at all is an attempt whatsoever to consider these men as human beings, consider who and why they are or what made them that way. What I'm reading is contempt disguised as nonjudgement.
