After Mario Puzo wrote his internationally acclaimed The Godfather, he has often been imitated but never equaled. Puzo's classic novel, The Sicilian, stands as a cornerstone of his work—a lushly romantic, unforgettable tale of bloodshed, justice, and treachery. . . .

The year is 1950. Michael Corleone is nearing the end of his exile in Sicily. The Godfather has commanded Michael to bring a young Sicilian bandit named Salvatore Guiliano back with him to America. But Guiliano is a man entwined in a bloody web of violence and vendettas. In Sicily, Guiliano is a modern day Robin Hood who has defied corruption—and defied the Cosa Nostra. Now, in the land of mist-shrouded mountains and ancient ruins, Michael Corleone's fate is entwined with the dangerous legend of Salvatore Guiliano: warrior, lover, and the ultimate Siciliano.

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.

I do not like multiple narrators

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

Good book, annoying narration.

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.

Loved the book, hate the audio version.

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

Listen to the sample first

After listening to the Godfather read by Joe Mantegna I was excited to listen to the next book in the series. Boy was I let down. The main narrator almost sounds like AI and the rest of the casts' "Italian" accents are ridiculously bad. First audiobook I have ever asked for a refund on.

Terrible Performance
