Story
The son of Sicilian immigrants, Camillo Carmine Galante was raised in Manhattan's Little Italy and by all accounts born bad. By fifteen he was terrorizing the streets of New York's Lower East Side, scoring high marks for the "errands" he was running for his La Cosa Nostra elders. When he turned twenty, Galante was already one of the mob's top enforcers-a sadistic thrill killer and clinically diagnosed psychopath with big dreams.

As a cop, Ron Previte was corrupt. As a mobster, he was brutal. And in his final role, as a confidential informant to the FBI, Previte was deadly. The Last Gangster is his story—the story of the last days of the Philadelphia Mob, and of the clash of generations that brought it down once and for all. Convinced that the honor of the "business" was gone, he became the FBI's secret weapon in an intense and highly personalized war on the Philadelphia mob, operating with the same guile, wit, and stone-cold bravado that had made him a force in the underworld.

John Gotti was without a doubt the flashiest and most feared Mafioso in American history. He became the boss of the Gambino Crime Family in spectacular fashion—with the brazen and very public murder of Paul Castellano in front of Sparks Steakhouse in midtown Manhattan in 1985. Not one to stay below law enforcement’s radar, Gotti instead became the first celebrity crime boss. His penchant for eye-catching apparel earned him the nickname “The Dapper Don;” his ability to beat criminal charges led to another: “The Teflon Don.”

With its brilliant and brutal portrayal of the Corleone family, The Godfather burned its way into our national consciousness. This unforgettable saga of crime and corruption, passion and loyalty continues to stand the test of time, as the definitive novel of the Mafia underworld. A #1 New York Times bestseller in 1969, Mario Puzo's epic was turned into the incomparable film of the same name, directed by Francis Ford Coppola, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture. It is the original classic that has been often imitated, but never matched.

But the government had no real idea as to the breadth of Bufalino’s power and influence—or that it was Bufalino, from his bucolic home base in Pittston, Pennsylvania, who reigned over the five families in New York and other organized crime families throughout the country.

Publisher's summary
At Columbia University, a professor of Russian literature has gone missing. A few miles and light-years away, Little Eddie LaRocca and Bobby San Filippo are on the move, dealing in everything from hot-sheet hotels to bootleg Fuji film. When the hoods are sent to find the professor, they find out that someone else is looking, too.
Beautiful FBI agent Laura Russo is making her preppy partner's head spin. She knows the missing man is important, and somehow connected to a recent mob hit. While Eddie and Bobby are fighting their way through ugly deeds and pretty coeds, these feds will cook up some business of their own, turning a little disagreement among criminals into an all-out war.
Capturing the organized crime world of the go-go '80s, Pistone and Bonanno's one-of-a-kind collaboration is bad to the bone, and as marvelously authentic as it gets.

And to do so, he'll have to take jobs of a less than legal nature.

Solid mob story; dreadful narration
I will admit that I could not finish this audio book.
This is a solidly plotted crime story, with a missing Russian language professor, a dead wise guy, and an FBI investigation into the connection between the mafia and the Russian mob. Aside from some rather tired tropes (the FBI agent team are a male/female duo with some sort of boring mutual attraction), the plot works pretty well. The occasional attempts at humor are weak ("I always thought Arnold Schwarzenegger was the missing link") but as an investigation-oriented piece it worked ok. The producers chose to have the authors co-narrate the book in alternating chapters,, with Bonanno reading the mafia stuff and Pistone reading the FBI investigatory chapters.
This was a mistake. The reading is awful. While Bonanno plods on well enough, Pistone's reading became unlistenable. I greatly admire Pistone as an FBI agent and his amazing real-life undercover work (as portrayed in the Donnie Brasco movie). He is clearly an intelligent, courageous and resourceful man. His sustained undercover work demonstrates his grit and prowess. He is a hero. But he should not narrate audio books.
At some point an editor should have nixed the idea of the authors recording the narration of this book. Pistone's stilted, stumbling reading becomes distracting and cringe-worthy. I do not understand why producers of these works allow authors to perform them-- it is a completely different talent, and most cannot do it.
I noticed that there is another audible version with a different reader. I recommend buying that one.
