I've had a right good time reading this thread, didn't know it existed but watched all the series first and I'm about half way through the book that spawned it.
I got interested in the book first as I saw Saviano interviewed on BBC news but ended up watching the series before reading the book which is the wrong way round but interesting nonetheless, and you can see where the fiction of the series was inspired by.
The book makes lots of reference to the Naples docks and the mob's links to major Italian fashion houses which isn't mentioned in the series which is interesting.
As it happens I've a mate who's just come back from working in the docks over there and says it's amazing absolute shithole which ties in.
Lastly, Saviono is supposed to have a price on his head following the book so whilst in hiding has decided to write a similar book on the current Colombian drug trade. He mustn't like feeling safe the daft fucker !
Is the book worth a read?
