Story
To Don Raymonde Aprile’s children, he was a loyal family member, their father’s adopted “nephew.” To the FBI he was a man who would rather ride his horses than do Mob business. No one knew why Aprile, the last great American don, had adopted Astorre Viola many years before in Sicily; no one suspected how he had carefully trained him...and how, while the don’s children claimed respectable careers in America, Astorre Viola waited for his time to come.

Story
With its brilliant and brutal portrayal of the Corleone family, The Godfather burned its way into our national consciousness. This unforgettable saga of crime and corruption, passion and loyalty continues to stand the test of time, as the definitive novel of the Mafia underworld. A #1 New York Times bestseller in 1969, Mario Puzo's epic was turned into the incomparable film of the same name, directed by Francis Ford Coppola, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture. It is the original classic that has been often imitated, but never matched.

For Vito Corleone, nothing is more important than his family's future. While his youngest children, Michael, Fredo, and Connie, are in school, unaware of their father's true occupation, and his adopted son Tom Hagen is a college student, he worries most about Sonny, his eldest child. Vito pushes Sonny to be a businessman, but Sonny - 17 years old, impatient, and reckless - wants something else: To follow in his father's footsteps and become a part of the real family business.

Story
Mario Puzo first answered the question 'What is a family?' with the creation of the Corleones in his landmark best seller The Godfather. Now, 30 years later, Puzo enriches us all with his ultimate vision of the subject: the story of the greatest crime family in Italian history, the Borgias.
Written by: Mario Puzo, and others
Publisher's Summary
Mario Puzo has created a sequel to The Godfather that is every bit as compelling and dramatic. But The Sicilian is a distinct literary achievement in its historical inspiration and its vivid portrait of Sicilian peasant life.

I do not like multiple narrators
I enjoy one voice from a talented narrator,someone to tell a story . The best narrators can do different voices for each character, I do not like a full cast . It sounds like a play, or TV with the picture gone. Or a radio play. I read the book in 1984 , saw the movie, great story. But I hated the narration and lasted one chapter.

Good book, annoying narration.
The story was great and I didn't mind the main narrator like some people. However whichever actor they got to play Don Croce is probably the most annoying sounding person I've ever heard in my life. Every time he breathes in he sounds like he's clearing his throat and he breathes after couple words. As one of the main characters this gets very old very fast and made me consider if it was worth putting up or if I should just drop the book

Loved the book, hate the audio version.
One of my favourite books so decided to get the audio. BIG MISTAKE! Main narrator sounds like he is telling the news in a terrible monotone. Then the rest of the cast have the worst accents possible. Are they trying to sound Italian? Cause it usually sounds like Bert from Bert and Ernie. I have a lot of audio books and normally I can still enjoy it even if the narrator isn't great, but in thie case I had to stop after 3 chapters. It was just too painful.

Listen to the sample first
I find that the narrator speaks too fast making it difficulty to comprehend and definitely do enjoy the book.
