Solicitation:

Welcomed warily into a community of holdouts from a modern-day plague, the mysterious John Ryder continues to tell his tale based on a prophetic page torn from the Book of Destiny. His second story, beautifully illustrated by Scott Hampton, captures a moment in time just before the Black Death overtook Europe in the 1300s, as seen through the eyes of a young princess for whom marriage is literally a matter of life and death.
