I just ordered my copy of The Godfather's Revenge through the banner on this site. I also ordered the revised Lebo GF book and the Pre-quel to Scarface book.


Anyone else order or plan on ordering this book?

Yeah I'm gonna order it today. The Col. wants to get it for me for our anniversary next week. I already have the updated Lebo GF book.

I'll wait for it to end up in the $1 hardcover bin at my local library's book sale, like I did with The Godfather Returns.

I've had a pre-release copy of it for about three weeks now. All I've read, so far, is the inside cover.

(Actually, that inside cover, which extends to the first page, is pretty interesting.... it lists the Cast of Characters from Puzo's novel plus Winegardner's novel). Of interest:


  • it notes that Clemenza served as consigliere from 1956-1957
  • it notes Fredo as underboss from 1955-1958
  • the "Five Families" INCLUDED the Corleones

The Mafia Is Not Primarily An Organisation Of Murderers.
First And Foremost,The Mafia Is Made Up Of Thieves.
It Is Driven By Greed And Controlled By Fear.

The revised Lebo book is titled The Godfather Legacy. It is a revised and updated version or a book that he put out several years ago. Mr. Lebo even scouted these boards to gather some more information for his updated and revised version of the book. I believe that our very own Don Malta is quoted in the book.


The Godfather Legacy: The Untold Story of the Making of the Classic Godfather Trilogy Featuring Never-Before-Published Production Stills (Paperback)by Harlan Lebo - $11.68


THE GODFATHER'S REVENGE
by Mark Winegardner
A new novel based on the characters created by Mario Puzo
The third, and final, installment in Mario Puzo's epic chronicle of the Corleone crime family-one of the most enduring lineages in American literature and cinema-achieves a stunning crescendo with a story that imagines the role of the Mafia in the assassination of a young, charismatic president. $15.58




You can order BOTH the "Godfather Legacy' and 'The Godfather's Revenge' through this site and even get free shipping because your ordering both books will total over $25.00

Here is the link that will allow you to order both of these books.

Thanks for the store promotion, by the way!

You're very welcomed. Hoping that you'll make enough from the sales so that you'll be able to pick up the check the next time that the breakfast club meets for breakfast!

Received the book today. Pretty fast considering that I ordered it on Monday and they said that it would arrive in 5 to 7 buisness days.

Anyone else get it yet?

Mig, did yours arrive yet?

I got my book in today. With Amazon messing up my order they said I wouldn't get it till the 17th. I hope it is better than the GF Returns. And hopefully it won't take me 8 months to read like it did to read that other piece of garbage.
