Prodigal Father, Pagan Son: Growing Up Inside the Dangerous World of the Pagans Motorcycle Club - Anthony 'LT' Menginie & Kerrie Droban,

This memoir steps away from the usual engine-roar bravado and lands somewhere more intimate, the view from a kid growing up in the orbit of the Pagans Motorcycle Club. The story tracks a father deep inside the club and a son trying to make sense of a world where loyalty is absolute, danger is background noise, and normal life always feels just out of reach. It’s less about the mechanics of crime and more about the gravity of it, how it pulls on family, identity, and the idea of what a future could look like.

What unfolds is a push and pull between inheritance and escape. The club looms large, shaping values, expectations, and fears, while the son’s perspective slowly sharpens into something questioning, even resistant. There’s tension in every chapter, not just from violence or risk, but from the emotional weight of growing up inside something that demands everything. It reads like a tightrope walk between two lives, one defined by the patch, the other by the hope of stepping beyond it.
