But then i started American Desperado which seemed WAY more interesting and I'm halfway in. Joe Roberts has some crazy stories and kinda makes me root for him, but he does embellish a bit I think, when you know a lot about the mob like many members of this forum, you can kinda sniff out the lies somebody has written or when they are exaggerating stuff.


How was Pablo Escobar's son's book? I've been meaning to buy that for a while. I'm reading At the Devil's Table at the moment. So far so good.

American Desperado is one of my favourites. Roberts does have some wild stories, but the co-author does a good job at researching and backing up most of them.
