A sweeping epic saga of corruption, greed, treachery, and sin, <em>The Family</em> is the ultimate crowning achievement of the #1 <em>New York Times</em> bestselling novelist who gave the world <em>The Godfather</em>, arguably the greatest Mafia crime novel ever written. In <em>The Family</em>, Puzo--whom the <em>Washington Post</em> calls, "A serious American talent"--plunges reader into the colorful tumult of the Italian Renaissance, immersing them in the roiling intrigues and deadly affairs of the remarkable family whose name has always been synonymous with power, corruption, poison, and murder: the infamous Borgias.<br /></p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p>We are a family. And the loyalty of the family must come before everything and everyone else. For if we honor that commitment, we will never be vanquished--but if we falter in that loyalty, we will all be condemned.</p><p>The crowning achievement of a truly phenomenal career, Mario Puzo's final novel is a remarkable epic of greed, treachery, sin, and power beyond mortal imagination. It is a journey to a different time and place--when the Church held the ultimate authority and ambition was cloaked in robes of the richest velvet. But most of all, it is the spellbinding story of a father and his children, bonded by blood, devotion, and dark purpose, who would descend into hell to rise to challenge the heavens; a family whose name is forever emblazoned in the annals of infamy . . . Borgia! </p>
