religion. Imagine!
And yet, all is not well. There is a war going on. The godlessness of
the world, disguised in comfortable Humanism, gnaws at the minds and
souls of the people. Euthanasia is rampant, a way to escape a sterile
and meaningless world. Only the ghettoized, underground Catholic Church
and its few remaining adherents struggle to keep Christianity alive.
Pushed to the edges of society, their biggest and most important
conflict comes in the form of Julian Felsenburgh, the leader of the new
world order . . . and an Anti-Christ.
It is left to Father Percy Franklin and the small band of remaining
Catholics to fight this, perhaps, final battle of Good vs. Evil; Christ
vs. Anti-Christ.
Written more than 100 years ago, Lord of the World remains just as
profound today as it did when it was first published.—TAN Books description“Mr. Benson sees the world, four or five
generations hence, free at last from all minor quarrels, and ranged
against itself in two camps, Humanitarianism for those who believe in no
divinity but that of man, Catholicism for those who believe in no
divinity but that of God.” This apocalyptic novel from the early
1900's is sometimes deemed one of the first modern dystopias. (Summary
from an original London Times review and Wikipedia)
Genre(s): Religious Fiction, Science Fiction
Language: EnglishLeft off ~2h 45m of the audio book, but got bored of it. Storytelling (poetry) is "infima inter omnes doctrinas" (S.T. I q. 1 a. 9 arg. 1).
