Vegas

This is one of two non-fiction books that Puzo wrote. Inside Las Vegas tells you the truth about what goes on behind the poker games and fancy slot machines. Anybody who has read or seen Nicholas Peleggi's 'Casino' will know what I'm talking about when I say 'Magic'. This is truly a fine piece of work and unlike Puzo's other big point Casino book 'Fools Die' I can honestly say that I prefered this.It has been writen down to the finest degree and it is full with interesting pictures too. I would ask anybody to read this book if they were into a hussler and Caino running. Along with the Casino another aspest which dominated this book is the mob. It is interesting when a man called Bruno is in his hotel room packing when a bell boy knocks on the door and tells him there are two men down stairs looking for him, because he skimmed their Casino the night before. It will have you turning pages all the way to an explosive showdown but don't take my word for it, read the book.Another thing that the book has is well developed characters and a great plot. however a film cannot be made because it would look to much like 'Casino'. Still this will have you ducking and diving at every paragragh and subsection and although it's not one of Mr.Puzo's more famous books such as The Godfather, It is still worth a read(more than one). Once you read the first chapter you will be hooked and won't be able to put it down. It also goes into great detail, e.g. Bruno shot him and Angelo stuck a knife through his heart to stop the blood flow and heart pumping. It is a sadistic and certainly more disturbing of Puzo's books, that's why it's almost impossible to get your hands on a copy. if you do, jump at the chance. It's worth your while and money.
