Description
Giovanni de' Medici's untimely demise in 1429 sets off a chain reaction in Florence. A lifetime of shrewd investment and strategic alliance had propelled him to the top echelon of Florentine society, but success has left a trail of bitter enemies. As his untested sons, Cosimo and Lorenzo, take control of the family's wealth, there are those who feel it is time to strike against the upstarts. The Medici family's power is at a crossroads, and the consequences of their actions will be far-reaching. This first volume in a quartet charts the rise to power of ten generations of the Medici dynasty, revealing a complex web of alliances, rivalries, and deceit. Matteo Strukul brings a brilliant style and rare imagination to this gripping tale of family, power, and betrayal.
