The Plague Tales consists of two parallel stories: one an account of a king's physician in 14th-century England, the other a tale of futuristic London--a time when antibiotics no longer cure and "Bio-Cops," empowered to exterminate those suspected of carrying disease, prowl the streets.
"Part historical novel, part futuristic adventure...surprisingly literate, chock-full of curious lore and considerable suspense."
--Entertainment Weekly
"A harrowing medical novel that will give readers both nightmares and thrills....It's a carefully woven page-turner from which veterans like Robin Cook and Michael Crichton could learn."
--Library Journal
"A hard-to-put-down thriller steeped in historical fiction and bio-tech sci-fi."
--Middlesex News (Mass.)
