Metropolis Books LA, Bantam and Steven Beer of Greenberg Traurig present an exclusive event with renowned author Traci L. Slatton who will present an excerpt from her debut novel IMMORTAL at Metropolis Books Los Angeles, 440 S. Main St., LA, CA 90013 on Tuesday, February 12, 2008 at 6:30pm.

IMMORTAL: The opulence of Renaissance Florence is a majestic setting to the stunning coming-of-age, love story of Luca Bastardo, a mysterious orphan left abandoned to the streets at a time rife with deadly plagues and war. As Luca grows, his quest to solve the riddle of his unique ancestry and his surprising agelessness, leads him to unravel secrets so powerful he becomes the focus of a religious manhunt. Enlightened by his friends Giotto, Botticelli, and Leonardo da Vinci, Luca discovers the ultimate paradox of love and immortality.

"There are lives so moving, so significant that they touch hearts across spans of time and space. These lives are not bounded by geographical demarcations, generational divides, or cultural definition. Immortal, a novel by Traci L. Slatton, explores the lives of men like this, people who are immortalized through their work and art, their legacies, as Slatton views them through the perceptive eyes of a special child, a child who is physically immortal apparently and, save for these wise men, completely alone." - Front Street Reviews

"Immortal is one of the most outstanding novels this reviewer has read in years! There is so much more to be experienced beyond this review that is riveting, provocative, beautiful, passionate, and unforgettable in this well-research and well-written Florentine story. A masterpiece, Ms. Slatton!" - Crystal Reviews
