Commentary In Favor Of Books Omerta (Mario Puzo's Mafia)
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.Now his time has arrived. The Don is dead, his murder one bloody act in a drama of ambition and deceit --- from the deadly compromises made by an FBI agent to the greed of two crooked NYPD detectives and the frightening plans of a South American Mob kingpin. In a collision of enemies and lovers, betrayers and loyal soldiers, Astorre Viola will claim his destiny. Because after all these years, this moment is in his blood ...

I read the Godfather 15 years ago, Omertà was a reminder to how beautifully Mario Puzo wrote. #theguywiththebookreview presents Omertà by Mario Puzo. Characters: I couldn't help but picture Al Pacino as the protagonist. There are some similarities between the two but the main difference being that Astorre Viola was trained to become 'Michael Corleone'. Rosie stood out for obvious reasons (people who've read it might still remember her). And ofcourse Washington was almost unreal! Plenty of greatAt this point, I doubt there will ever be a Mario Puzo book that I dont like. He writes the best Sicilian crime dramas ever written. Omertà may not be his best one, but its still highly enjoyable.
I am enjoyed reading this book. Alhamdulillah. My favourite character is Astorre Viola.

Good story, good drama, fast-paced with good detail and well-rounded characters.A good, quick read. Especially if you liked Puzos work other from The Godfather.

A true masterpiece that lives up to its reputation. Words fall short to explain the magnificence of Omerta, sure the ending might seem a tad bit too far fetched (An overtly happy ending for a book about Mafiosos), but the character developments were more than adequate to lay a reasonable ground for it.
I honestly think this wasn't Puzo. if you love him don't read this one . its a very ordinary book nothing like The Godfather or The Sicilian
