El retrato fascinante de la primera gran familia del crimen. El creador de El Padrino volvió a impresionarnos con esta historia sobre la primera gran familia del crimen, con unos personajes crueles y cautivadores, esclavos de sus pasiones y víctimas de sus feroces instintos. Con maestría literaria, el autor nos transporta al Renacimiento, al mundo de Alejandro VI, el Papa Borgia, y de sus hijos César, Juan, Lucrecia y Jofre. Ésta es la historia de una familia cuya ambición y sed de poder la llevarían a la cima del mundo, y la crónica del alto precio que pagaron por ello.

First Sentence
"The golden rays of the summer sun warmed the cobblestone streets of Rome as Cardinal Rodrigo Borgia walked briskly from the Vatican to the three-story stucco house on the Piazza de Merlo where he'd come to claim three of his young children: his sons Cesare and Juan and his daughter Lucrezia, flesh of his flesh, blood of his blood."
Work Description
What is a family? Mario Puzo first answered that question, unforgettably, in his landmark bestseller The Godfather; with the creation of the Corleones he forever redefined the concept of blood loyalty. Now, thirty years later, Puzo enriches us further with his ultimate vision of the subject, in a masterpiece that crowns his remarkable career: the story of the greatest crime family in Italian history -- the Borgias.
