    Papillon is great but Banco wasn't quite in the same league as you really get to know the man as an incorrigible criminal. When he had the choice to go straight, he never did. But I loved both books for their sense of adventure.

    Great book.A true story of man's many attempts to be free and finally gaining freedom.Things I learnt from this book :
    1.Never, Never, Never, give up.
    2.Never lose your integrity.I admired papillion's strength of character,honesty and spirit.
    3 'We can get used to anything......It is only a matter of self control'.How he manages to maintain his sanity in all those years of silence is amazing.

    This was one of the first books I read about personal adventures, and I could not keep it down till I finished it. Very well written.

    I liked Banco, too, which is the "part two" of the story.
