Used. Mass Market Paperback. Before Mario Puzo made us an offer we couldn't refuse, he spent his twilight years tracing the terrifying family tree of history's most infamous Italian dynasty, the Borgias. Completed by Carol Gino, this sweeping historical novel trades the asphalt of New York for the gilded halls of Renaissance Italy, where divine right and deadly cunning routinely went hand in hand. You will find all the trademark political maneuvering, calculated cruelty, and intense domestic loyalty you would expect from the godfather of crime fiction. Step inside and discover how the original lords of the underworld managed their most sacred, and terrifying, enterprise.
