About this ebook

In a world of political intrigue, war, and faith, Aeneas Sylvio Piccolomini rose from humble beginnings to become Pope Pius II, a key Renaissance figure.

His journey was marked by intellect and passion, as he evolved from scholar and diplomat to a pope whose vision shaped history. In this novel, John Broughton explores his complexities as a humanist, statesman, literary lover, and believer who pursued a grand political agenda through the Church.


From his childhood to his Papacy, this historical novel reveals a brilliant mind navigating 15th century Europe’s turbulent waters. Rich in historical detail, PIGSTY TO PAPACY is an evocative tale of transformation set in Renaissance-era Italy.
