New York, 1933: The city and the nation are in the depths of the Great Depression. The crime families of New York have prospered in this time, but with the coming end of Prohibition, a battle is looming that will determine which organizations will rise and which will face a violent end.

For Vito Corleone, nothing is more important than his family's future. While his youngest children, Michael, Fredo, and Connie, are in school, unaware of their father's true occupation, and his adopted son Tom Hagen is a college student, he worries most about Sonny, his eldest child. Vito pushes Sonny to be a businessman, but Sonny - 17 years old, impatient, and reckless - wants something else: To follow in his father's footsteps and become a part of the real family business.

An exhilarating and profound novel of tradition and violence, of loyalty and betrayal, The Family Corleone will appeal to the legions of fans who can never get enough of The Godfather, as well as introduce it to a whole new generation.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Channels the original so well that readers will be vividly reminded of Puzo's strengths...His moments of blam-blam-blam are ace. Best of all, he supplies a grand set-piece finale--a parade--that will have readers dreaming of just one more movie." ( Booklist)
"What works well is Falco's depiction of Vito Corleone, which captures both the cool reserve of young Vito and the insight he demonstrates as Don....A worthy addition to the lurid world of the Five Families." ( Kirkus)
Compelling Storyline • Rich Backstories • Exceptional Character Voices • Authentic Dialogue • Intriguing Plot

The author managed to capture most of Puzo’s style.
Cannavale’s performance can’t be faulted. Specially how he manages to capture the tone and cadence of the voices of many of the male characters.

Almost sounded like Mario Puzo.

I am a big fan of anything Godfather. The Family Corleone is a great book with new and familiar characters to see how the Corleone Family rose to power. Gives the following books and movies a deeper history. Bobby Cannavale was a great reader.

Enjoyed this prequel to The Godfather

While this was an interesting way to build a pre-Godfather story line, I found way too many references to the that original book in the dialogue and action of the characters, which made this feel more like a parody than an original novel. The narrator did a good (?) job in recreating voices of those actors in the Godfather movie, so I could envision each one in front of me.

All in all, a decent, if not enthralling read, that took a long time to get interesting.

Originality Suffers

a wonderful telling of the history of the Corleone family from before The Godfather. really enjoyed more backstop on characters like Frankie "5 Angel's, and especially Luca Brassi.

a wonderful extension of the story
