“THE RULE IS SIMPLE. THERE ARE MEETINGS, ONE WINS, ONE LOSES, THE LOSER DIES. THE CHOICE IS YOURS. AS LONG AS YOUR OPPONENT CHOOSES FOR YOU.»
David Baez. Baby eyes, adult body, strong and alive as he was only sixteen years old. In front of him, invisible among a crowd of people dancing and drinking, an elderly man, tired and dangerous, the notes. And choose. The boy is kidnapped, thrown into a truck by force and forced to fight with bare hands against a stranger. Is its entry into the world of illegal fights to the death: or kill or be killed. Earlier David cries, protest, rebels: raised in a hushed and reassuring daily life, don't know what violence. But his body knows the instinct, and wins the first meetings. The man, her captor, can see in him the potential of a fighter unlike any other, and maybe even more, a sort of heir to transmit his knowledge, his values and his personal moral laws. Help him survive in an inhuman world, teach him that imprisonment, the abuses, murder and death can become acceptable, a new "normality". After 1442 days, a hundred murders behind and lost all inhibitions or morals, by David Baez won't be nothing left and from its ashes will be born Batiza, the fiercest assassins.
The second novel by Paola Barbato is education to violence of a modern Gladiator in a hell populated by sadists with white collar. Is the story of a living nightmare that engulfed every year dozens of people — at the bar, in front of schools, Metro — and devours forever, body and soul.”
