I just ran across a review of my new gangster bio that was posted on August 5th. It’s entitled “Greg Scarpa, Legendary Evil: The Many Faces of a Mafia Killer – A Comprehensive Review.” It is indeed comprehensive.
The review covers, “Summary of the Plot, Main Characters, and Setting,” “Writing Style,” “Character Development,” “Literary Themes and Motifs,” “Pacing and Structure,” “Author’s Use of Language and Vivid Imagery,” “Emotional Impact,” “Themes and Messages Conveyed,” and “Strengths and Weaknesses.” It concludes with a recommendation comparing the book to “other works exploring the Mafia, such as those by authors like Nicholas Pileggi.”
I am, of course, excited to see my work receive such detailed attention, particularly given the positive nature of that attention. While I genuinely appreciate ratings and concise blurbs about the book posted online, a review like this gives potential readers concrete and thorough reasons to decide whether the book is deserving of their time and hard-earned dollars.
As always, I’ll keep you posted.
