Customer Reviews

The Blood Covenant

This is an amazing account of what can happen if you let God lead your life. Micheal found out the hard way and he is sharing his life story with you so you can go right to the top.

And I Only Read FICTION!

This is a fantastic book! It reads like a fast paced novel but is more incredible as a real life story. His previous life is only outshadowed by the life he now lives. Amazing.

False Review

There is no apparent truth to Michael Murphy's review of the book Blood Covenant. He falsely states that the author was recently indicted by the feds for new offenses. This is not true. Don't know if Mr. Murphy provided this false review intentionally or by mistake. Whatever the case, the statement is false and misleading to perspective readers. I suggest you seek other reviews on the book before deciding to read it or not....

Amazing Story- I had no idea

I am just amazed by this story. Michael Franzese was a REAL mobster. And he just walked away from it. I didn't think that was possible! This guy was the real deal, and he has the criminal record to prove it. Tried three times by Rudy Guliani, millions of dollars scammed from the government, and he just walks away-- all because of a girl!!! The fact that he is still alive today is an amazing testament to his faith. I have learned so much from this book, not only about this life that I knew so little about, but about the ability for one person's life to make such an incredible U-turn. This is a MUST-read!

Fast-paced, mobster mega-work!!!

If you are into the "Sopranos" or anything that's related to the Mafia, this book is for you. It's a super-charged tale of a man who was a kingpin in one of the five New York City crime families. This slick schemer was raking in millions a week, and then he decided it was time to do something that defied common sense. Want to know what? Then buy this book! You won't want to put it down!
