The Sicilian - Mario Puzo







The classic story of a young Italian boy on the lawless island of Sicily who goes from the nothing to the most feared man in Sicily. I loved the way the author shows him going from boyhood to manhood and how he builds his army with nothing but his charm.

Easily the next best Mario Puzo novel after Godfather. The robin hood type main character is so gripping, his character and style is crystal clear in my head years later.
