FROM BACK COVER,
By Avid Reader "Jim" (Columbus, Ohio USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: House of Lions (Paperback)
This is the extraordinary story of the De Leone Family- the Royal House of Lions-and their generations-old, unrelenting struggle against the Mafia in Sicily. A proud, landowning dynast, the De Leones are respected and feared for their determined war against corruption and lawlessness. At a very early age, Dolcetto De Leone-the Godson- learns that survival depends entirely on vigilance and courage. The Young Lion accepts the challenge of his heritage with fierce pride, knowing his course has been charted by destiny.In a blazing, passionate style as hot as the Mediterranean sun itself, Gloria Basile has captured the naked heart and raw guts of Sicily and its people. Never before has a story so faithfully portrayed the growth and power of the Mafia and the noble Sicilians who fought to maintain the law and honor. You will remember the incredible men and women of the Royal House of Lions long after closing the last page of this book. |
