The Art of Illumination A M Hamilton

The year is 1097. Britain has been politically unstable for an age, and it doesn't seem as though things will be settling down any time soon. It isn't just political issues that threaten the population, however. Without an understanding of the nature of pestilence or the knowledge of how to treat it, disease runs rampant through the population, affecting everyone in its path.

While tragedy rampages unchallenged, one place stands apart from the events a?icting the world at large. Hidden away in a corner of the land stands the large, stone monastery that serves as a shelter from the terrifying world. It is here that one man finds himself on a journey he never expected he would take. He discovers the art of illumination, not only in the creation of beautiful manuscripts, but in illumination of the soul. In the process, he also uncovers a secret that will propel him into a world he never expected to ?nd.
