So only once we get back to Turi's POV for the second time is he encouraged to start documenting all his deals and political actions. Which means the NEAR 200 PAGES of "set-up" for Turi is basically unnecessary filler. It's at least half the fucking book and yet we've just established that the only IMPORTANT and DOCUMENT WORTHY things he does happen at page 260.

And just like that, they take Michael back away from me again.

I'm finally back to Michael. Turi is interesting enough (as if the very obvious Baron Harkonnen-esque mafia boss), this part really drags in comparison. I can't put my finger on it--the Godfather was also laden with paused asides to explain mob-terminiology or some random tidbit about Sicily--but this one seems so much more halting.

Well, this is oddly salient in this year of our lord 2026. This book is 42 years old. What the fuck.

Will no one ever let Michael just go home, get some sleep, fix his jaw, and see his family? No, it's time to biry him even deeper in "shit that's now your problem, Kid" and just look kinda sad about it. LET THIS MAN SLEEP.
