I would love to here what you think was the best and the worst parts of this novel. I know many did not like the brothel scenes. For me, I found Leonardo intolerable until he was an adult. What are your thoughts?

Well, for me, yes the brothel scenes were the worst. I think the best really was Luca for me. I liked his character. For all he went through, he still went on in his life to be a good man. He could have turned out horrible after all that had been done to him but instead he still looked for love and believed in it.

I'm with Dar - the character of Luca was the best thing for me. I also think that though they were horrid to read, the brothel scenes were Slatton's best writing.
The worst parts were the too-lengthy discussions of art and alchemy.

The brothel scenes were definitely the worst for me. I also did really like Luca, but I'm not sure he was the best thing about it for me.
