Publisher's summary

Mafia Prince is the first-person account of one of the most violent eras in Mafia history - "Little" Nicky Scarfo’s reign as boss of the Philly family in the 1980s - written by Scarfo’s underboss and nephew, "Crazy" Phil Leonetti.

The youngest-ever underboss at the age of 31, Leonetti was at the crux of the violent downfall of the traditional American Mafia in the 1980s when he infiltrated Atlantic City after gambling was legalized, and later turned state’s evidence against his own. His testimony directly led to the convictions of dozens of high-ranking made men including John Gotti, Vincent Gigante, and his own uncle, Nicky Scarfo - sparking the beginning of the end of La Cosa Nostra.

Just as The Godfather and Boardwalk Empire defined the early 20th century Mafia, and Wiseguy and Casino depicted the next great era through the ’70s, Mafia Prince concludes this epic genre revealing the Mafia’s violent final heyday of the 1980s straight from the horse’s mouth.

Rollicking Ride

The inside look at organized crime was interesting but really confusing at times. I got lost in too many names and the tales of crime seemed repetitive. But Leonetti’s ability to disassemble and justify would be a psychiatrist’s dream to analyze.

A revelation.

I was fascinated by Mr. Leonetti’s tale. This book was an eye opener for me, one of the few intro’s into the modern Mafia world that rings true. The narration adds a great deal to this audio version. I highly recommend it.

the feeling behind the words

There was a lot of emotion behind stories. This is a heavy one. Betrayal and family bad blood make for a lot of violence.

Great story

Needs a separate narrator for the first and third person narrative. Now I have to look up pictures to put faces to these names

Great Book and excellent Naration

Really takes you back to Philly in the 80's and into the mind of Nicky Scarfo who was as murderous a gangster as you can get.
