About the Book

El invierno de los leones es el triunfo y el trágico declive de los Florio, la poderosa dinastía de Los leones de Sicilia, el mayor éxito editorial de los últimos años en Italia.

Para los Florio los tiempos de humillación y miseria son solo un recuerdo lejano. Hoy, la ciudad entera los admira, los honra y los teme.

Ignacio, el heredero, por el contrario, no teme a nadie. Sabe que el destino de la saga está en sus manos y quiere extender su poder más allá de Sicilia, influir en la política que se hace en Roma y dominar el Mediterráneo. Por estas aspiraciones Ignacio renunció a un amor que habría trastocado su futuro, un amor cuya sombra no le abandonará nunca.

Su hijo Ignazziddu, en cambio, sí tiene miedo. Recibe el legado familiar con apenas veinte años, pero no está dispuesto a sacrificarse por la familia, a ser esclavo de su linaje. Intenta tomar las riendas del imperio, pero se enfrenta a un mundo cambiante, agitado por fuerzas nuevas e incontrolables que acabarán mostrándole que no basta solo con tener la sangre de los Florio para imponerse, para triunfar. Necesita algo que tenían su padre y su abuelo, pero que a él le falta. ¿Cuál ha sido su error?

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The Winter of Lions shows the triumph and tragic demise of the Florio, the powerful dynasty of the Sicilian Lions, the greatest Italian bestseller in recent years.

For the Florio family, those times of humiliation and misery are nothing but a distant memory. Today, the entire city admires, honors, and fears them.

Ignacio, the heir, on the contrary, fears no one. He knows the saga's fate is in his hands and wants to extend his power beyond Sicily, influence politics in Rome, and conquer the Mediterranean. Over these aspirations, Ignacio renounced a love that would have disrupted his future, a love whose shadow will never leave his side.

His son, Ignazziddu, on the other hand, is afraid. He receives the family legacy at barely twenty years of age, but he is unwilling to sacrifice himself for the family, to become a slave to his lineage. He tries to take the reins of the empire, but faces a morphing world stirred by new and incontrollable forces that will end up showing that the Florio bloodline just isn't enough to prevail, to triumph.
About the Author: Stefanía Auci, nacida en Trapani pero palermitana de adopción, ha reconstruido la historia de los Florio tras una exhaustiva investigación en las bibliotecas y en las crónicas de la época. Los leones de Sicilia, primer volumen de la saga de los Florio, es un bestseller en Italia y se ha vendido en 12 países.
