  The author of Horrible Histories describes the lives of the famous writers through the ages: Roman horror king Seneca, whose own death is as nasty as his bloodthirsty plays; Bede, the Anglo-Saxon monk who tells of bloody battles and ghastly plagues; and Charles Dickens, who shocks Victorian readers with his stories of cruel teachers and gruesome workhouses.
