I thought it was a really good book thought it didn't seem to have direction, a beginning, a middle an end etc. But it's a very enjoyable read. Puzo was fascinated with the Borgia and this was his dream to write about them. And therefore he's opened alot of peoples eyes after reading the book to look into the Renaissance period and especially the Borgia. That's been proved by Partages previous post and in my own experience.

The incest, kind of "threw" me aswel along with the rape that Cesare gave out to an imprisoned woman (Can't quite remember her name this moment). There was no real justification for this but it was something in history that Puzo felt he wanted in his book.

Don't apoligise for your post Pacino, I enjoyed reading it and i'm glad to see a post I can reply to in this section of the board.
