I read both Takedown and the other book that was written by the reporter that was in contact with him one summer back in the 90's. I can't find the name of the other book because I keep getting books written by Mitnick and the other likely candidate came out too late.

Ok, it was The Fugitive Game after all. I was judging it by the print date of the paperback. The hardcover came out a year earlier.
Both were good books but painted very different pictures of him.
