Summary: Gotta read Son of the Mob!!!
Review: Vince Luca is just an ordinary high school kid. His dad is a mob,his brother puts bodies in the back of trunks and hes got over sixty uncles who come to his house for business.

I liked this book a lot. My favorite part of the book is when Vince and his friend Alex go to a frat party and they meet a girl from there school named Kendra. They know her from there school. At the party theres a drunk guy who who likes kendra, and she does'nt like him. Vince can tell she wants nothin of him. Vince helps her out by tell the guy that kendra's his girl friend. Then Kendra and make out,but then loss each other in the croud of people. I also liked the part when Vinces brother pays a call girl for him, because he put a body in Vinces car trunk. Vince. When Vice goes to his brothers apartment Cece, the call girl is there waiting for him. Those were some of my favorite parts in the SON OF THE MOB.

Summary: Lil' Sopranos
Review: Vincent Lucas is the youngest son of crime boss Anthony Lucas. Although he enjoys the fruits of his family's ill gotten gains (like a new Porsche for his sixteenth birthday), he isn't particularly interested in following in his father's footsteps, especially when he becomes romantically involved with the daughter of the FBI agent gunning to put his father away. He finds himself at odds with his father when he takes pity on two men who owe his dad some money. Vince wants to show the scumbags how to budget. His dad wants to do it the mob way - cut off a few fingers with the garden shears.

Meanwhile, he faces the typical complications of being a teen, like trying to get his schoolwork done and play quarterback on the high school football team, while also trying to avoid the complications of his family's business, like the unconscious body of a man in the trunk of his car.

Will Vince be able to escape the family business? Will he and Kendra find true love and live happily ever after?

Max Cassella does an excellent job narrating this audiobook, with an authentic wiseguy, Sopranos-esque voice. The humorous, fast paced story will hold the attention of any teen as well as be an enjoyable story for the parents to listen to in the car.

With the runaway success of The Sopranos, all things mafia are very popular currently. An exciting crime element (albeit with very toned down violence) combined with a thoughtful, funny, likeable protagonist would interest even the most reluctant audiobook user. The narrator's fast paced voice and hilarious delivery do an excellent job holding the attention of the listener, even in the unabridged format.

Summary: You'll Love It!
Review: You will like this book because it's very energetic and something is always happening. It makes your own problems seem like nothing compared to Vince's in Son of the Mob.

Vince Luca has a life most kids would love to have. A new mercedes for his birthday, an allowance like you wouldn't believe, and a certain kindness from all of his teachers. It all seems to good to be true and it is. Come to find out his mercedes is stolen, his allowance is a part of his Uncle's murder business, and his dad pays off his teachers so he gets good grades.

Vince is a like able who wants nothing to with his dad's no good business. Kendra, Vinces girlfriend, is skeptical about their relationship. But who wouldn't be with Vince's dad being King of the Mob and Kendra's dad being the top FBI agent right on his tail. So read this book to see what happens to Vince and Kendra in Son of the Mob.
