"Plague is a RIOT! I can't remember the last time I had this much fun while reading! If you love dark British humor, you should stop whatever you're doing right now and start reading this story." ***** Thorn Greenwood, Royal Road
It is 1665. Wannabe actor Clive Hucklefish has come to London seeking fame and fortune. But his hopes are dashed by an infectious new contagion: actresses! Yes, the merry monarch, Charles II, has finally allowed women to play (with?) themselves on stage! With all the best parts taken, Clive joins a band of undertakers whose business is dying (in every sense), for the undertakers’ arch-nemesis, the Alchemist, will stop at nothing to see death ended forever!
But when Clive falls hopelessly in love with the Alchemist's daughter, Clive receives a timely summons from the furry godfather of all ratkind, with an offer he simply cannot refuse...
