Finally! This is the novel I had read a couple months ago and fell in love with. I believe EVERY fan of Scarface will LOVE it, too! It will be available to the general public around the 3rd week of October -- but the author, Dejohn, has extended a special offer for visitors of this web site!! Anyone who reads this can pre-order the book now, and receive it two weeks before everyone else! ![[Linked Image]](http://www.thereturnofsf.com/sfclean2.jpg) THE RETURN OF SF is the story of two brothers, Alejandro and Roberto. Join their wild journey from the streets of Cuba, to the excitement of Miami's nightlife. We follow them and their attempts to resist the drug world that doomed their father. It is also about a major player coming back from the past. At first trying to live a normal life. But ultimately realizing that revenge is the only answer. Read more about it, and order it from here: [b]http://www.TheReturnOfSF.com/[/b] Note: This book will not be available via Amazon.com until closer to release. You can use PayPal to order it in the mean time, or send a check or money order to the address on the site.

I am not going to give it away - it'd ruin the surprises! I will say, though, that it's very engaging and exciting. Probably not as violent as the movie, but there are plenty of rollercoaster rides in this book! BTW - and this does not detract from the book at all - but the names are changed for now. You will know who's who, though... Maybe I can convince the author to join us here... hmmm...

Why is it called Return of SF instead of Return of Scarface?

this is my guess as to why the title is "sf" and not Scarface.
It could be that the author is intending this novel to be read by (and read solely by) fans of the mafia and the film scarface and not for the rappers and other wannabe mafioso that rap about being mafia dons. If the title read "The Return of Scarface" more people of the MTV culture would use this novel as PR to their advantage (just like they use the film "Scarface" on shows like "Cribs" to illustrate to their fans that they somehow can relate to Tony Mantana) and distort to true meaning of the story. On the bright side, if it wasnt for the "buzz" of scarface, i dont know if there would be a re-release of the film on DVD and the showing of it in select movie theaters. Anyway, based on my reading of such topics, that is my guess at the reason why the title reads "sf" and not "Scarface" Do my ideas reflect your ideas, or am i just talking out of my ass lol
Bart, Is it wrong to steal a loaf of bread to feed your starving family? No. Well suppose you got a large starving family, is it wrong to steal a truckload of bread to feed them? Uh-uh. And what if your family don't like bread, they like cigarettes? I guess thats ok. Now what if instead of giving them away, you sold them at a price that was practically giving them away. Would that be a crime Bart?

Maybe it has to do with that Scarface is a registered trademark of Universal? Or some kind of legal stuff like that. So they probably just put SF instead of going threw all that legal crap is my guess.
The point is ladies and gentlemen that greed, for lack of a better word, is good. Greed is right. Greed works. Greed clarifies, cuts through and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Greed, in all of it's forms - greed for life, for money, knowledge - has marked the upward surge of mankind.-Gordon Gekko

You would think that just about anyone doing a book or anything based on Scarface would jump at the current time to get the book out to coincide with the DVD release...
