The Alchemist's Cat by Robin Jarvis

Description: This history book introduces how Jupiter came into power. It is during the time of the Bubonic Plague in London. A mother cat and her three kits are found by young William Godwin. He endures a volley of horrors from the death of all his friends and family to witnessing the Alchemist (Doctor Spittle) chatting with a demon. But through all of this, tragedy strikes the entire book. The ending is sad, angry, and most of all, surprising.
