The Lost Throne
ISBN: 9781440177118 / Angielski / Miękka / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. What happens to a lost child? In THE LOST THRONE, he becomes a pope - to be exact, he becomes Pope Victor III (1086-1087). While the Catholic Church as an official account of Victor III and his origins, rumors persist that he was in fact a Jew. Spun from imagination and a rich detail of 11th century Europe, the author weaves a story of heartache, love, feudal conflict and papal intrigue. The story of Pope Victor III has never been told from this perspective or with such insights. For those who love papal history, THE LOST THRONE is a must read.
