You know, I wouldn't have read this book as a physical copy at all, as the pace is pretty slow.

However, the building up, and then the drops of action make a fantastic story. You can really feel the respect that they have for the Don, and the dynamics within the mafia. Intriguing.

It's one of those books that you only read once. I would recommend the audio version.
