Lord Of the World
by Benson, Robert Hugh
Lord of the World is a 1908 apocalyptic novel by Robert Hugh Benson. It is sometimes deemed one of the first modern dystopias. In purpose, however, it is somewhat more similar to the recent Left Behind series, though different in theology and radically superior in artistic quality. Michael D. O'Brien's Catholic apocalyptic series, Children of the Last Days follows a very similar theme as well.
