Benson's ability to weave a biblical story line into an imaginative vision of the future is absolutely stunning. His writing brings to life what may be when the Lord of the World engages in the final battle against the Bride of Christ, the Church. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves well written literature.<br /><br />Marlene<br /><a href="http://www.potteryplaceaz.com/_start.php" rel="nofollow">You won't believe this Pottery Glendale AZ</a><br />Marlene Detierrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09035816972520443608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8895518556533459607.post-44789694554858344092015-07-13T23:46:58.269-05:002015-07-13T23:46:58.269-05:00As flawed as it may appear in places, it is noneth...As flawed as it may appear in places, it is nonetheless a great read written by a long- forgotten writer of exceptionable imagination.Top rated Is God Real informationhttps://godscall.tvnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8895518556533459607.post-17281798774036948822015-03-03T05:28:35.598-06:002015-03-03T05:28:35.598-06:00The Baronius Press edition should be right, since ...The Baronius Press edition should be right, since it has been sourced from the London first edition.

In Book 3, Chapter Five, Section III, second paragraph, we find this:<br /><br />"In short, it seemed that he could do no good by remaining in England, and the temptation to be present at the final act of justice in the East by which <i>land, and, in fact, it was more than likely that if she</i> were to be wiped out…”<br /><br />The text <b>should</b> read:<br /><br />“In short, it seemed that he could do no good by remaining in England, and the temptation to be present at the final act of justice in the East by which <i>those who had indirectly been the cause of his tragedy</i> were to be wiped out…”<br /><br />This was the text that appeared in the first edition. I have seen the edition in which the printer's error originated with a line of type getting reused by mistake, an error that has been recopied into all subsequent editions.<br /><br />Let us hope a corrected edition is published someday.Legisperitushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16632802535007393326noreply@blogger.com
