Interesting Twitter thread by author Fonda Lee. Her Greenbone Saga trilogy is absolutely amazing, combining Chinese wuxia with Western gangster fiction in a fantasy world not entirely different from ours in many regards, save the existence of a form of jade that grants superpowers to those able to use it (the "Greenbones" of the series title). But, yeah, the Godfather is a clear influence so even the protagonists, a family that leads one of the Greenbone "clans", tend to exist in morally grey areas a lot.

FYI, the books are Jade City, Jade War, and Jade Legacy (first two are out, last is due out this coming Fall, IIRC)
