The Scorpion Book 5: In the Name of the Father
The Scorpion Book 5: In the Name of the Father, by Stephen Desberg & Enrico Marino, Cinebook
THE RULING families of Italy are at war, and there is inner bickering amongst the Trebaldis comparable to that of the Borgias.
Rome is not safe, but The Scorpion has returned!
He wants answers, and he may not like what he hears, but the truth it seems can remain hidden for only so long – And I for one am glad that what I’d come to suspect is turning out to be true. I’ll not give the game away, but the title of this volume says it all.
A power-mad pope whose every word is obeyed with military precision by warrior-monks and inquisitors, foreign espionage intrigues that turn awry, enough swashbuckling to keep anyone excited, and one brief tender moment between Mejia and The Scorpion – This is a swirling colourful adventure that simply doesn’t come out often enough, it’s that good!
