Better than any movie

Paul Johnson did a dynamic job in explaining the true friendship of three close friends who dominated the drug trade. All three had different personalities, but a common interest. This book is better than the Godfather. Hollywood need to take notice and make this book into a movie. I would certainly invest in it! I enjoyed this book so much and Paul Johnson is a top notch writer!

THIS IS A REAL DECENT BOOK. HAS A DECENT STORY AND A FEW TWIST. WHAT I DIDNT LIKE WAS THE ENDING. THE ENDING MAY SPOIL ALL THE GOOD THINGS ABOUT THE BOOK THE CHARACTERS ARE GOOD AND ITS ACTION PACKED BUT IT JUST HAS A BUMB ENDING.
