The Black Death, the first volume in the NOT WITHOUT MERCY series, is the account of a family caught in the dawn of the world’s most dangerous outbreak, the Black Plague of 1348 that took the lives of over twenty-five million people, over one-third of the population of Europe. The Black Plague caused moral malaise throughout the land that grew greed, selfishness, insecurity, fear, brutality, and wickedness. It caused the fearful to become faithless, and the faithful to become fearless. The Church grappled to explain it at the same time its clergy was either dying or hiding from its parishioners for fear of contamination and death. Bristol was one of the main shipping ports in England, and the home of William Beorn, a prosperous shipbuilder. William, his wife Jillian, and eldest son Michael were forced to take drastic measures to keep the family alive. Each day was a test of faith, family, love, courage, hope, and redemption. In the grim struggle people either thanked God for life, or blamed him for death, for some, it was the end, but for others, like the Beorn family, it was the beginning as they discovered that God had left them, Not Without Mercy.

The story line was interesting and I wanted to hear it to the end, but it was amateurish. It reads like student work, and I would encourage the author to seek professional guidance or an MFA in creative writing, He was obviously motivated to finish the book and a sequel, and to put it on Audible. I believe he has the potential to develop and improve, if he is willing to accept good advice from an experienced source.

So much is covered in this. Wave of emotion and notes of familiarity. Such a sad strong story. So real. No words are adequate. Best and the worst of humanity are on display, faith is shown and heartbreak stray turns the heart to ice. So feel the grief and pain. But also hope.
