Description
It is the one-thousandth year of christianity. The end of the millennium is fast approaching, and with it the nightmare visions of Armageddon and Apocalypse. Tracing the career of Pope Sylvester II, a visionary so brilliant many believed he had made a secret pact with Satan, author Richard Erdoes creates a vivid tapestry filled with powerful vignettes and revealing character sketches. As rich as any fantasy, this chilling historical account holds up a dark mirror to our own society, here at the eve of the second millennium.
