As the world rushes to war, a mysterious man emerges to quell the conflicts and create a universal peace-but at what price?Lord of the World is Monsignor Robert Hugh Benson’s famous dystopian sci-fi novel, written in 1907, in which he describes a world where the religion of humanism has taken over and man relentlessly pursues his own ends. In many ways a prophetic book, this is a must read for all thoughtful people, not just Catholics.
