Once again my love for reading Historical fiction is satisfied by a C.W. Gortner book! I highly recommend it if you are a fan of the genre but be aware of some trigger situations as violence and rape.
I just wished we wrote a book about Catarina Sforza as i love Italia and C.W. Gortner is such a wonderful "Powerfull woman" writer because he gets that showing the power that all the woman he portraits in his books have is showing their hardships and the fact that they weren't always in power but never gave up nonetheless. To sum up, I think the ideal that you can survive no matter what and that you are as powerfull as you let yourselve be is present in this book about Lucrezia Borgia.
