Master of Verona II

Yesterday I received the book Master of Verona by David Blixt, and from the opening line, "Ciolo's nerves jangled like spurs as he looked about." to the moment I was abrubtly awoken by the book hitting me in the face, (it kept me up way past my bed time), I was enthralled. The prologue grabs you and pulls you into the story, the pace ebbs and flows like the tide causing the reader to sucked into the novel.

I suggest that you read Afterword first and study the detailed map to better acclimate you to the era and mind set of the characters. I also suggest that if you are a little rusty on Romeo and Juliet, Dante's Inferno that you at least look at the Cliff Notes to refresh your memory. I say this because not only is this a labor of love by Mr Blixt, but it is a history lesson about the once great city of Verona.

Once again I highly recommend this book and suggest that you purchase it today. Visit Master of Verona right now.
