I am currently reading Stalin: Breaker of Nations by Robert Conquest. Might anyone have a suggestion for a better, and more authoritative biography of Uncle Joe?

I enjoyed: "Stalin; Portrait of a Tyranny" by Anton Antonow Osswejenko

I have Stalin: the First in-Depth Biography Based on Explosive New Documents from Russia's secret Archives by Edvard Radzinsky on my shelf.

Conquest! Hah! Most Soviet historians think him a crackpot.
I would suggest reading Next to Stalin by a bodyguard to Stalin, Secret Documents published by Northstar Compass, Another View of Stalin by Ludo Martens, Joseph Stalin: A Short Biography.
