Book excerpt: GOD BLEW, AND THEY WERE SCATTERED is the saga of the Taelmann family, who were found in the Spanish Netherlands, (today's Belgium) during the 16th century rejuvenation of the Spanish Inquisition, reinstated by the Catholic Church, under the cruel rule of Philip II of Spain (1556-1598). As the story unfolds, the reader will detest the army commander; fear the Jesuit priests; abhor the meddling viceroys; applaud "Cook" Verhult; weep for Lily; revel in the romance of Jacques and Anna; and, fall in love with a black stallion, called Noble.
