About this listen

From beloved number one New York Times best-selling author and WWE Hall-of-Famer Mick Foley comes a Yuletide tale like no other.

After a lifetime of putting his body on the line to entertain his dozens (and dozens!) of fans, the Hardcore Legend is paying the price - physically and emotionally. When the final bell on Mick's career tolls, not in the ring, but in a neurologist's office, his future seems far from merry and bright. Until Mick is given the chance to become Santa Claus - not dress up, not pretend, but become Santa - allowing him to rediscover the joy of performing.

Fully committing to his new mission, Mick details the drastic measures he takes to keep the Christmas magic alive for his young children, as well as the many children he meets in his travels who are in need of some Christmas Spirit. In order to fully embrace his new red-suited responsibilities, Mick enters the fascinating world of the Santa subculture, where he hones his Christmas craft while worrying he'll be excommunicated from the Santa world for, among other things, his Santa character being run over by a motor vehicle on Christmas Eve on WWE television.

But with the help of an unlikely elf - eight-time Grammy Award winner Norah Jones - Mick learns valuable lessons about the real power and responsibility of wearing the red suit.

Critic reviews

"Based on personal experience, I assure you that if Santa Claus and Mick Foley are not one and the same, they're at least closely related. Don't believe me? Then read Saint Mick, a beautifully written book by a man with a holiday-filled heart." (Jeff Guinn, New York Times best-selling author of The Autobiography of Santa Claus)

Hart warming

Loved the book
Beautify written shows the importance of caring for others, and the magic that Santa-clause has on children.

It made me smile.

I grew up watching Mick Foley as Mankind, Cactus Jack, and Dude Love. This book made me smile so many times while listening to it.

I hadn't expected Mick Foley to do such a good job

Foley is an excellent narrator, and that's probably the best part of the audiobook. The book isn't epic, but it does tell a very interesting, inside story about the world of Santa. It gives you insight into the balance between being young at heart and dealing with the responsibilities of adulthood.

Foley Is Not only Good... But Santa as Well

I may be biased, I may have a decent sized soft soft for “Mrs Foley’s Baby Boy”. However!!! I do not give out 5 star ratings “wily nily”. A book has to really touch me, reach within me & elicit a .. “This is freakin awesome” reaction & well, this book definitely touched the olde ticker. I’ve read quite a few Foley books & after not only watching Holy Foley on the Wwe Network & I am Santa on Netflix, i feel like this is what the old Micker was supposed to do post wrestling career. Good on ya Mick for writing this book, taking the journey to truly be Santa and all the other sacrifices that you have had to go thru. In closing....Foley emits the true essence of Santa & therefore.....Is Santa

Mick Foley’s passion for Christmas is contagious

Thank you Mick. I read your “Have a Nice Day” over 20 years ago and was pleasantly surprised at how fun it was to read. I read your second book and enjoyed that one as well. Hearing your voice for this entire book felt like comfy pajamas in that it was soothing and enjoyable.
Thanks Mick for a book focused on you, and not some wrestling guy.

one of Foley's best

I am always a fan of Mick Foley and didn't know what to expect from a Christmas book. If blew me away made me cry and laugh at parts. Foley is truly a great author and I hope he continues writing.
