The Sicilian was truly a fantastic book. Every sentence seemed to be pure Puzo in every sence. And indeed it was. It was almosy as though Salvatore Guiliano was born and lived his life just so that Puzo could write about it. Okay, that's goin' a little overboard, but if you are interested in reading a book by Puzo, or anyone for that matter, The Sicilian is the best book to choose. Period.
