Summary
“A fast-paced true-crime memoir with all of the action of Goodfellas.” (UNILAD )
“Sopranos v Sons of Anarchy with an Alaskan-snow backdrop.” (WWC)
Breaking bones, burying bodies, and planting bombs became second nature to Two Tonys while working for the Bonanno Crime Family, whose exploits inspired The Godfather.
After a dispute with an outlaw motorcycle club, Two Tonys left a trail of corpses from Arizona to Alaska. On the run, he was pursued by bikers and a neo-Nazi gang bloodthirsty for revenge, while a homicide detective launched a nationwide manhunt.
As the mist from his smoking gun fades, listeners are left with an unexpected portrait of a stoic philosopher with a wealth of charm, a glorious turn of phrase, and a fanatical devotion to his daughter.

Great story
Very enjoyable story, good characters and very engaging. Although a life of crime not always admirable two Tony's is very likeable.

Enjoyable
Very interesting book. I guess the lack of detail was because Tony didn't want the police to use them against others.

I wish it was more detailed!
he didn't go into his life of crime in too much detail, felt rushed, a shame because 2Tonys DOES have a great story to tell!

Below average
The lives of these types of people are often fascinating but this gentleman's story clearly only got told because the author grew close to him in prison and owed him a lot, not because there was anything remarkable or even particularly interesting about his criminal career (if you can call it a career, it seems a lot of the time he was in regular jobs).
To make matters worse a large part of the end of the book is given over to Two Tony's 'philosophy', which is basically a tedious ramble from a quasi intellectual who clearly has too much time on his hands.
The narration is not great either. Virtually every sentence finishes in the same elevated tone which grates somewhat.
I loved Shaun Attwood's books on the Colombian cartels and the war on drugs but this was not in the same class.
