Two-time Academy Award® winner Mario Puzo is known around the world for his brilliant book The Godfather, widely considered the finest novel ever written about the Mafia. Two years before Puzo published that iconic work, he released Six Graves to Munich under the pseudonym Mario Cleri. During World War II, intelligence officer Michael Rogan lost everything —including his family—to brutal Nazi interrogators. Now 10 years have passed, and Michael is returning to Europe to exact his revenge.

I somehow missed this book when reading anything Puzo I could get my hands on. Happy to find this here, just reminded me why I love this author. If you haven't read (or listened to) Fortunate Pilgrim, I highly recommend seeking it out soon.

Love Puzo and this book

This is all about revenge and is an interesting concept. If seven guys day after day tortured you, tortured and killed your wife, shot you in the back of the head while laughing at you and then thinking you were dead threw your body on a stack of bodies, could you sleep at night knowing they were enjoying life.

The main character who has a steel plate in his head and many medical problems, due to the torture he underwent, is more bothered by the humiliation he underwent then the actual torture or disfigurement of his body.

This was written by MP under a different name and before he became famous, so few people know about it. It is very well written, thought provoking, and keeps your attention. It is only five hours long, because that is how long it takes to tell the story (No fillers or unneeded material). There is blood and guts, but only as that is what is needed to tell the story. I recommend this book

I came to this by way of Philip Kerr and his Berlin cycle. Fits perfectly into the head space I've been inhabiting while traveling through Germany this year. There's so much knowledge and pathos to be gleaned from this time of madness, barbarism and simple banality. Puzo frames it all through the lens of fanatic heroism and his characters come to life, contorted, complex life. I certainly know what era I'm diving into next: Puzo's time of Omertà.

Story teller, historian. Puzo is a magician.

This is a fairly obscure early work by Mario Puzo, two years before he wrote The Godfather. It's a short and fast paced novel, but it gets bogged down occasionally by backstory. It's a straightforward vengeance mission (find the men who torturred him in WWII) and the main character has the motivation, brains and guts to pull it off. There's a reasonably good espionage element, though sometimes it felt like the author was just figuring this out as he went along. Although you might think there are some elements that are cliche'd, remember this was written in 1967. So if it's a cliche today, it's because other people have taken the ideas that Puzo (and others) developed. If you liked 3 Days of the Condor, you will like this. That said the ending was a let down. It's a short book, worth listening to.

Interesting espionage thriller from the 60s

What did you like best about Six Graves to Munich? What did you like least?

I was looking for a good revenge story and this has some good revenge aspects. But I never really connected with the character.

Meh

Poorly written, formalistic, no originality, forgotten before you finish it.
I keept slugging on because of the author and the wishful thinking that a twist was just beyond the next page.
I was sadly wrong.

Not worth the time

I would give this a C+. Puzo wrote and published it in 1967 and it is definitely an early effort. It is fun to listen to as an example of what passed for "shocking" in that era. The story is okay but filled with implausibilities.

An early effort by Mario Puzo

Predictable, inconsistencies in the narrative, boring - struggled to get thru - performance of the reader lulled me to sleep

Disappointed
