jino_k 's review for:

The Sicilian by Mario Puzo
4.0

I loved how Puzo framed this story inside of Michael’s exile. He could have easily separated the two, and just as easily intertwined them. And by choosing the latter, I felt immediate familiarity and loyalty to its efforts. His storytelling is just excellent.

—spoilers—
i did feel like aspanu’s betrayal was a little too sudden. of course, the reveal had me sitting upright and turning the page, and the retrospective explanation of his actions added up as well. but in my opinion, it would have been a better craft to reveal hints of his inner thoughts/disappointments with turi (at least in one instance).
