Has anyone read this book? Is it any good? Who are the main characters? Do they have the same names as they had in the movie or are they the real life names of the characters (Rosenthal and Spilotro)? I just ordered this book off of http://www.abebooks.com (thanks, Turi).

I read it awhile ago and so I don't really remember it, but I do remember liking it. The name Rosenthal rings a bell, so I think that was the character's name in the book, I may be wrong. But from what I remember, it's definately worth a read.

Thanx Don Palentino. I can't wait until I get this book.
STUPID FACT:
I ordered this book from the same town that The Blair Witch Project was set in: Burketsville, Maryland.

In the movie he is Sam "Ace" Rothstein and in the book he is Frank "Lefty" Rosenthal. I'm reading it now but i think i liked "Wiseguy" better.
