    About this audiobook

    Spring 1665, London. Sam was just a young boy when his master took him out of the orphanage. When he was old enough, he was going to become his master's apprentice. But that was before the plague arrived. Now, Sam finds himself nailed into his workshop home with only his dying master and pet dog Budge for company. Can Sam escape? And even if he does, will he be able to survive?

      As Macbeth so nearly rightly said, a bad travelogue is but a walking shadow; a poor player that struts and frets its hour upon the stage and then is heard no more. It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. Minus the f
