Paperback. Etat : Good. 292 pages. Cover wornPapal history without pomp, circumstance , or spirituality--as chilly novelist Condon (Prizzi's Honor, etc .) details the largely factual 1390-1415 story of Baldassare Coss a, a soldier/pimp/entrepreneur who became mercenary Pope John XXI II. . . and the fatalistic, much-betrayed pawn of rising banker C osimo di Medici. The off-and-on narrator here is Franco Ellera, J ewish slave to the Cossas, a pirate-family of Naples; and when yo ung Cossa is sent off to Bologna to begin studies for a lawyer/pr elate career, Franco goes along as sidekick. But, while rising in academia and Bologna politics, Cossa also pursues his other life --as rake, pimp, thief (stealing a hoard of Papal gold), soldier- of-fortune. An atheist who has never taken holy orders, he become s a cardinal largely because of his battlefield triumphs in fendi ng off the current pope's enemies. And along the amorous way (317 conquests, not including courtesans), Cossa falls madly in love with two women: Catherine Visconti, wife of the Duke of Milan; an d Decima Manovale--the super-courtesan who, working for the Medic i Bank, uses her four daughters as bedroom diplomats and plots Co ssa's way to the Papacy (as a conciliar pope to end the church's great Schism, an alternative to the feuding Rome/Avignon pontiffs ). With slangy anachronisms and utter cynicism, Condon sometimes offers a bouncy--if only half-convincing--picture of the Church a s Mafia. And he does manage to digest large chunks of complex Chu rch-in-Schism history. But no one here, including ruthless-yet-pa ssive Cossa, is even roughly sympathetic; the melodramatic episod es (some purely fictional) get lost amid all the historical detai l; and, though free of the verbose stateliness usually found in p ope novels, this lowdown, relatively breezy chronicle is more int riguingly informative than richly entertaining.
