Web of Lucifer: A Novel of the Borgia Fury by Maurice Samuel is a gripping historical novel that plunges readers into the heart of Renaissance Italy, a world teeming with political intrigue, ruthless ambition, and unrelenting passion. Through richly drawn characters and vivid storytelling, Samuel brings to life the infamous Borgia family, whose quest for power left a trail of scandal and treachery.Set against the backdrop of a turbulent era marked by shifting alliances and ceaseless conflict, the novel centers on the cunning and merciless figures of Rodrigo Borgia—Pope Alexander VI—and his children, Cesare and Lucrezia. As they weave their web of manipulation and corruption, their actions shape the fates of nations and individuals alike. From secret conspiracies to dramatic confrontations, the story captures the essence of the Borgia legacy: a blend of brilliance, depravity, and audacious schemes.At its core, Web of Lucifer is more than a tale of power and ambition—it’s an exploration of the darker facets of human nature and the devastating consequences of unchecked greed and lust for control.
