BY THE SAME AUTHOR.
A TIME OF TERROR
(Second Edition).
Evening Standard.—"A politico-social romance of London and England—prophetic, of course, sensational and thrilling."
Scotchman.—"Truly a time of terror, and the anonymous author has a clever enough pen with which to expose the vices—some of them real enough—of the opening years of the twentieth century."
Outlook.—"The story of a man's revenge against a nation, our own. After war and internal anarchy, the capture of the Kaiser and the death of the avenger ends with a national thanksgiving. Very eventful."
The Tribune.—"Whatever the cause, the occurrences are certainly terrible; ... beside the lurid vision, enormous in range and horrifying in nature, the accumulated sensations of a score of 'shilling shockers' pale into insignificance.... The book is written with much spirit."
Yorkshire Post.—"The details are worked out so cleverly that there is a thrill on nearly every page. This is the work, one would say, of a practised writer, and the lover of sensational literature should not omit to read it."
Literary World.—"This is a well-written, and in many respects a powerful story.... There are many sensational scenes, and plentiful satire of the social and political world of to-day."
Aberdeen Free Press.—"The unaffectedly hair-raising title is indeed a fitting preliminary to a series of as startling episodes as have stirred the body corporate of English fiction for many a day.... The whole book is, it is true, sensationalism, but it is sensationalism with a purpose.... Some passages contain a fine plea for the Christian faith. It is a most original book, and at its lowest value an excellent entertainment."
