I read the massino book was a great read also the Charlie carneglia and vinny gorgeous books was decent reads was sceptical about gotti book because a lot of reviews said it was a bit of a rehash looking forward to the book about Vito there's so much to write about.

His books about Lufthansa heist/Asaro and Massino were good reads.

I read Gotti's boys. Some interesting stuff on Salvatore and Angelo Ruggierro and the Bergin crew. Not a ton new but quick and interesting read.

I like all the books he wrote. The one about Massimo the last don was great.

Honestly I get more info from 'deep dives' into this site than many of these books.

Still I read all of them, and I will get both the DeCav book and the Genovese book. (Distefano wrote about a murder that Basciano committed in Queens on Francis Lewis Blvd that is still a mystery, or a myth)

Hopefully Giovanni's Ring clears up and confirms some of the leaders identified only by nicknames. While "Milk" is surely Joe "Milk" Merlo Jr., would be great to get confirmation on "Horse" and "Big Head".
