About this listen

Here is the critically acclaimed inside story, now in an expanded edition, about the rise and fall of Philadelphia's notorious Scarfo organization. Blunt and unsparing, it is a firsthand account of murder, money, and corruption told by wiseguy-turned-witness Nick Caramandi, whose testimony put Nicky Scarfo and many of his associates behind bars for the rest of their lives. A prime target for hit men to this day, Caramandi continues to survive only through the government's Witness Protection Program. In this updated edition of Blood and Honor, author George Anastasia picks up the story where he left off, filling us in on the fates of all the characters - major and minor - in recent years.

Contains mature themes.

Not at much Scarfo as I expected.

This was OK as mafia books go. The narrator was good. I just expected to get more about Nicky Scarfo than what I got.
Not a bad listen though just...... a bit limp.

Really good account of Philly mob

I own the hard copy of this book and it's been over 15 years since I read it. Having just listened to the audiobook I'd forgotten how good it is. I've really enjoyed revisiting this.

A brilliant listen

A great audiobook, well read and very interesting. Up there with Mafia Prince as an essential history of the Scarfo-era Philly mob. Listened to it free on the Plus Catalogue and will purchase it at a later date. Brilliant stuff.
