Rating: 4 stars
Summary: tony the greek
Review: A great, honest, no-holds-barred account from a man with extreme courage and conviction to come forth and tell this incredible story. Not only are the characters fascinating, but we are also exposed to high levels of government corruption and how the system really works. I think "The Greek" speaks from the heart and has given us a most amazing account of organized crime and our criminal justice system.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent read but is it truth or fiction
Review: Excellent account of what happened to Jimmy Hoffa but how many books out there or stories are going around claiming the same thing? I guess we will never know but this is a very interesting version nonetheless and thats just 1 small part of the book. This guy talks about hit jobs like he talks about taking the dog for a walk. Its a piece of cake for him. Its hard to go into everything in a review but if you dig mob books you will dig this one. Its a really easy read and its pretty decent sized and it holds your interest!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Not Bad but is it true?
Review: It's not a bad book but I wonder how much of what he says he did is actually true. If you red alot of mafia books, like me, You don't find many new stories except Jimmy Hoffa. He says he was there but I could say the same thing. There is no one to back him up except Jimmy Coonan, and I doubt he will. As long as you read this with a large grain of salt in mind, it's entertaining. New versions of old stories. If you want read a real book about the mob, read "Murder Machine" by Jerry Capeci and Gene Mustain. It's the best of all of them.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not a Bad Story
Review: This book is about the life of a confessed mob hit man. Some times books like this make me question if the author is not adding a little to make sure the buzz is there it sell the book. If this guy really did the damage he claims and for the reasons stated then why did not one of his "family" friends not put a hit out on him? And while we are talking, how many people have claimed to have been part of the Hoffa killing? So many they evidently needed to pick Hoffa up in a school bus to fit all the killers in.

Don't get me wrong; this is a very entertaining book, with just an armload of tabloid type details about the mafia and a lot of interesting stuff on the government and the witness protection program. The book is a very interesting jump into the world of the Mafia and you will remember of lot of the story for a good while after you have finished it.
