"Fish Scales is the handbook and survival kit for the true hustler. Fish Scales breaks down the game's rules, the do's and don'ts, honor, respect, loyalty--the whole 9 yards! Rookies and vets can learn from it and keep their minds' sharp. If you know the game or are just fascinated by the game, make sure you read Fish Scales. It is true literature about the game and everything included. Be ahead of the game and read Fish Scales, the book of the year!"

"Fish Scales is an extremely well written, authentic, and a fascinating peek into the life of a regional drug baron who built his empire and then went on to discover the strength and voice within himself to speak truth about it. Aside from keeping the reader on the edge of the seat during the ride, Mario Wallace moulds words like the true artist that he is. He is able to analyze and gain enough distance to make this far more than just an urban street story, as he paints the picture of the life of so many young, hungry kids in America who stand at the crossroads to make this same choice. I can't wait for the movie!!!!"
