WEAPONS THE DEVIL – Novel, by Marco Scardigli and Andrea Santangelo
Imagine you’re in Pavia, back in the year 1525. Imagine seeing a king of France won and humiliated. Imagine the outcome of that battle are the result of technological innovation. Fine. Reading this novel, you will not need imagination, because you will know many things of the distant month of February, well described. Lanzichenecchi and purveyor, two monarchies that are compared to the European dominance, firearms of arquebusiers Spanish and daring French cavalry. In the smoke of battle, perhaps you will hear a woman’s voice: “Who has the courage to open the throat of a wounded enemy, to take away the money, you can also return home.”
