EXACTLY!!!!! I completely agree! This book was marketed completely wrong! You made some great points all around, DBC, even though I don't completely agree with you - I enjoyed the book for the most part - but it certainly DID NOT fill in the gaps between the original book and the movies - this was my biggest criticism. While reading the book, it definitely left me scratching my head wondering when those gaps would be filled - AND THEY NEVER WERE!

Another thing that bothered me about this book is it's stinking title:

THE GODFATHER RETURNS??????????? Does this make sense seeing that this book is a sequel/prequel rolled up in one? Does that mean part III which occurs after TGR is THE GODFATHER RETURNS AGAIN?

Anyone following my point on this one?

We just all have to face it, Mark Winegardner is NOT Mario Puzo - end of story!

"Ahhhh, no, no, no - you insulted him a little and you were a little out of line yourself! You insulted him a litte...ok!"
