Anthony Borelli knew a lot more about Renaissance Italy than did most kids his age.He knew that it wasn't one country but rather a whole bunch of city-states. He knew that people spoke a version of Italian back then that was different from the Italian he had learned in school. And he knew about the Gregorian calendar, Pope Gregory XIII's attempt to wrestle holidays like Easter back to the seasons in which they belonged.But Anthony never expected to find himself in Renaissance Italy . . . or to be fighting the kinds of bizarre, bloody monsters he had only read about in the mythologies of the ancients...or to be the linchpin in a grand, desperate scheme to save the world of Man from the beginning to the end of time.How, he wonders, is he supposed to overcome the amassed forces of evil when he can't even overcome the town bully?Lost Days isn't just about a calendar. It's about demons. It's about blood and death. It's about magic, and courage, and crazy schemes . . . and in the end, the power of love.
