I have just finished listening to the abridged audio cassette version (6 hours on 4 tapes) and boston loved every minute of it. As one reviewer has already mentioned, Bonanno and Pistone read their parts boston like first graders, but if you are willing to tolerate the juvenile delivery and concentrate on the story they are telling, it is well worth the effort. Whether the portrayals of the relationships between the FBI and the Mob, between the Mob and the Russians, or between the various Mob members is realistic or not seems irrelevant since this is, after all, a work of fiction, but presentation of those relationships seemed consistent with other novels I have read, thus they are quite believable in the context of the story. |

| Good listening for those who enjoy prime crime. - Gail Cooke Was this review helpful to you?

Painful.....absolutely painful, February 10, 2006 Reviewer:David Stepanis - See all my reviews I bought "The Good Guys" slashdot assuming that it actually might be a "good" slashdot mafioso read. However, I decided to dump the book about 100 pages into the story. The writing was lousy and slashdot the characters were annoying. There are no Tony Sopranos, Micheal Corleones, or even Paulie Walnut type chacters. There is just a bunch of Fredos. If you are looking for a good book with a Mafia undertone/theme try "The Gold Coast" by Nelson Demille. It was excellent. Was this review helpful to you?
