In Omerta it was obvious that Puzo, may he rest in peace, was slippin'.
Parts of it were excellently written, and then other parts were terrible... felt like a made for tv movie.
Alot of people in the publishing world feel that Puzo didn't actually live to complete Omerta. That it was finished by a hack just to make a few more dollars from the Puzo name. Same goes for The Family.
