In response to "Credibility?"

This book and the other book about him being in florida are fictional, the books say that. The book by him that is true is Donnie Brasco : My Undercover Life in the Mafia: A True Story by FBI Agent . If you are looking for a true story read that one. For good entertain ment read this one...

Joe Pistone is a wonderful writer

I absolutely found this book to be very Fascinating and Intriguing. I had never read a book by Joe Pistone before but when the series Falcone came out, I just had to read one of his books. I loved the series and found myself loving this book as well. I could not put it down. I felt the pain of donnie barns/brasco throughout the whole book. I wanted a little more suspense but i guess you only get that in the movies. But i would highly recommend this book and have given my book out already for someone to read and they love it too.

Another Classic Novel about Donnie Brasco

When I purchased this book I was looking forward to another great read from Joe Pistone. Much to my surprise, it was better than I expected! Joe Pistone's Donnie Brasco series is full of action, suspense, intrigue and above all a peak into a fascinating world, that of an FBI agent.Taking place in New York (where I grew up), I enjoyed the descriptions of the locales, traffic, the mob and the airport. Having read Donnie Brasco and Deep Cover, you can feel his pain and terror during the twists and turns this story takes. I would love to meet Joe Pistone and listen to him tell the stories of his career.I would highly recommend!
