Review
'A television landmark that leaves other landmarks in the dust... a masterpiece'
(Washington Post )'A diamond; rare, polished and beautiful, yet capable of cutting through to the bone... a show like no other'
(USA Today )'Far and away the best show on television'
(Newsweek )'The Sopranos... has so immersed viewers in the personal and professional lives of New Jersey mobsters that you can practically smell the gun smoke and taste the gabagool'
(The Times )Product Description
Dr Melfi: 'What kind of work are you in?'
Tony: 'Waste management consultant.'
We have a business proposition for you... The story of Tony Soprano - family man and Family man.
Winning an Emmy and five Golden Globes, The Sopranos has gained legions of fans since it appeared on our screens in 1999, and reached a peak of over 13.4 million viewers in the US. A huge cult hit around the world, its impact is such that the name 'Soprano' has become synonymous with mobster culture.
THE SOPRANOS: THE BOOK is the ultimate companion to the show, covering all six seasons. It explores the storylines and characters, with a comprehensive guide to all the episodes, profiles and analyses of all the central characters and many never-before-seen photographs. It also goes behind the scenes, featuring interviews with the creator of the show, David Chase, and cast members.
With its stylish design, this will be a book that fans of the show will kill to get their hands on.
Paulie: 'With all the shit we've been through, you think I'll really kill you?'
Christopher: 'Yeah, I do.'

........and what a book, if you are as obsessed with the sopranos as I am then this is a must have. I cannot emphasise the amount of detail this book goes into, I thought I knew pretty much everything about the show but this book takes things to a new level. Interviews with cast and crew, motives for storylines, reasons for the choice of music, locations, family trees etc. are all explained in great detail. If you are regretting the demise of the greatest show on TV then this book is the best remedy. So dont wait for xmas, buy this today, and for £10 you wont regret it.

This is an official Sopranos book with contributions from all the major players including creator David Chase and many cast members who give great insights into their own characters. The book is of high quality - the authors clearly care about the show and have made a book worthy of the TV series.
The book is an essential read from beginning to end but particular highlights include casting stories and photos, a discussion of storylines which have never fully been concluded (what did happen to the Russian in the memorable Pine Barrens episode?, will Melfi ever get her revenge on her attacker from Season 3?), Bobby Bacala discussing wearing a fat suit and an excellent episode summary which takes us up to Made In America - the last episode of Season 6 Part 2.
The best thing to do to fill the time before the final episodes become available on DVD is to get this book. Great stuff.

This is a great book - loads of insight and depth into the characters and stories; my only disappointment was to not have already finished watching all the series of the Sopranos, and finding out a bit more from this book than I wanted too early. When I started reading it, I thought "better to not read all of it", but once I got going, it was pretty tough to not keep going to the end. So I did. And if you have any interest in the Sopranos, you'll like it too.

An excellent guide to the series and the history behind it. Well written pieces by many of the actors and a good episode by episode guide.
