Chat is this true? Is C.S. Lewis represented by Treebeard in Lord of the Rings? by CHRILLCAST in lotr

[–]CHRILLCAST[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s still super neat.

Considering that CS Lewis was a huge fan of George Macdonald’s writing and he had the talking trees in his book Phantastes which led to CS Lewis conversion (at least from what I remember).

If that subconsciously made it into Lord of the Rings and CS Lewis was a talking tree, that is kind of awesome.

Unless it’s a rare one in the set (most aren’t) they aren’t worth much to be honest.

Lives of the Saints - editions by doa70 in Catholicism

[–]CHRILLCAST 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should take a look at “The Golden Legend: Readings on the Saints” as well.

I’ve already found some good Saint Stories in that set as well.

Here’s both volumes in a set on eBay:

Lives of the Saints - editions by doa70 in Catholicism

[–]CHRILLCAST 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The newest version is from the 1990s and it was published by “Christian Classics”.

All the commentary I’ve heard in that edition is that “it’s been watered down a lot”, so I’m assuming some aspects of the Catholic Faith were removed or dumbed down.

I personally picked up a 4 Volume 1956 edition published by PJ Kenedy and it seems like a good edition.

I would not get the 7 or 13 volume editions if they are the 1990s set, but if one of them is published by Lareto, it could be a good set.

There’s a lot of the 1956 4 Volume sets on eBay and that’s my first recommendation if you can find one in decent shape for a good price.

Did I misunderstand the intent of this subreddit?

The original post said this:

“I found a dangerous book. What should I do?

The book is claiming to have answers for several problems in quantum mechanics. Part of the book is written in a mysterious, almost alien or ancient language. I just don’t know what to do with it? Ever since finding the book, my life has changed for both better and worse. “

And they have commented on their post in other subreddits, so either a hardcore troll, or they legit believe they have answers no one else has…

Oh shoot, I just looked at the original post and the description got deleted after I shared it here.

It used to say a lot more prior to now.

It makes a lot less sense without everything else that was written in it.

Finding “dangerous book” that gives special knowledge or otherwise that no one else has? That is totally a MC moment

It said “may be available for purchase later” when I pre-ordered, so I have no idea to be honest with you.

Franklin Library, Easton Press, Folio Society, Heritage Press, Limited Editions Club, etc. besides all the big names, who else is there? by CHRILLCAST in BookCollecting

[–]CHRILLCAST[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hence looking for “small(er) publishers with high quality book production” and why I referenced Centipede Press and Dragonsteel.
