# Power. Honour. Revenge.

The ultimate tale of family, loyalty and revenge, The Godfather reshaped the Mafia myth and gave rise to one of cinema’s most powerful dynasties. Robert Carter’s cinematic illustrations draw you into New York’s underworld, where every shadow hides a deal and every street could turn into a crime scene. The cover’s bleeding, upside-down skyline turns the city into a portrait of corruption, while the slipcase bears a lone chess piece, a stark reminder that Mafia power is a game of strategy, sacrifice and ruthless moves. Inside, black and red ink echo the blood and grit of Puzo’s world, and Jonathan Freedland, Orwell Prize-winning journalist and novelist, provides a powerful new introduction to the novel that became a cultural empire. Now is the time to play your move and step into the Corleone inner circle. But remember … in this family, loyalty is everything. And betrayal is paid for in blood.

### 'Whether it's the language, the tradecraft or the folk legends of American Mafia life, The Godfather reads like a voyage through the underworld with Puzo acting as our Virgil' Jonathan Freedland, from his introduction
