Set in Reformation Europe, 'Q' traces the adventures and conflicts of two central characters: an Anabaptist, a member of the most radical of the Protestant sects, and a Catholic spy and informer. In a world of intrigue, violence, and intense political and religious passion, the novel follows their thrilling journey across Germany, Italy, and the Netherlands. The four young writers who shelter behind the pseudonym Luther Blissett have created a work that explores the depths of faith and power in an age of great change.
Luther Loide Blissett is a former professional footballer and manager who played for the England national football team during the 1980s. Born in Jamaica, Blissett played as a forward, and is best known for his time at Watford, whom he helped win promotion from the Fourth Division to the First Division. Blissett set Watford's records for appearances and goals, having played 503 games and scored 186 goals, and was the top goalscorer in the 1982–83 Football League First Division as he led Watford to second-place. He was also one of the first black players to represent England. Blissett was capped 14 times by England, scoring a hat-trick on his debut. After retiring from playing, Blissett turned to coaching, initially under the management of Graham Taylor at Watford, and managed Chesham United from 2006 until 2007.
