I really love this book. I am reading it for the second time now. Yes Micheal Corleone is in the book, but he is not the central charachter in the story. To be honest, even if Micheal was never in the story my opinion on the book would not change. Because the way Puzo tells the story of Turi Guiliano with his sidekick Aspanu makes it a great read. I can't help but admire the charachter of Guiliano.

I am intrested in doing some research on the real life Guilano but I really don't know where to start.
