Rating: ![3 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-3-0.gif) Summary: A bizarre and difficult novel. Review: "Fools Die", a novel (semi-autobiographical?) about an author and gambler, is a strange and different book. Unless you are a real Puzo fan, there really isn't much point in reading this book; the profundity that imbued "The Godfather" is clearly lacking. Re-read "The Godfather" instead, and find another author.
Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: One of the best books i ever read Review: I am usually a sci fi/fantasy buff, but this book made me reevaluate where I stood on fiction. The scope of this book is truly impressive, it is not merely a story, it is a chronicle of a mans life. And even this misnomer is misleading, it is not so much a chronicle as a saga. This book will and should live on as an example of one of the greatest works of literature in the 20th century. I am duly impressed with all that Mario Puzo has written, but this book tops all the charts for him and for any other author. This book was great, if you don't read it, you are going to regret it when you son is talking about it in an english class in 20 years.
Rating: ![1 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-1-0.gif) Summary: DEEPLY DISAPPOINTED! Review: I LOVED to read "The Godfather", therefore i believed that "FOOLS DIE" would be as excellent as, but it seems to be a tedious biography of Mario Puzo, who had to written something to get some money... mixed with something left from "Godfather" and a good draft text about human relationship who is used in the introduction and reprinted at the end to fill the gap left of the book.
Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: Mind-Blowing Review: This book just seemed to captivate me. I have never read a book that kept my attention so well. The details on human thoughts were down to earth and real. Mario Puzo is a genius to have seen the human nature so easily. By far one of the best reads.
Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: Never had a chance to read a story like this Review: life, commitment, relationship - everything is so true in this book. I just couldn't believe somebody could see it so clear, how the life of a man is complicated...
Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: A great book Review: This book really attempted to explain all aspects of life. After reading the preface to The Fortunate Pilgrim, I realized that this book was really a take on Mario Puzo's own life. Really Amazing

Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: I Liked Fools Die Review: I think that this is one of Puzo's best books. I have this opinion because in this particular book Puzo really lets the reader know what the main character is thinking.
