Poetry and Allegory From the Land Beyond the Crystal Sea by Edward N. Brown is an interesting and unique retelling of Creation, Satan's deception, and the ultimate loss of souls as a result. The author leads us through the vast emptiness, the great plan, a Divine design concept, Creation itself, the influence of Satan, and the deception of mankind. The final portion is a concise and powerful allegory of the "Mysteries of the Mustard Seed." Edward N. Brown's abilities as a storyteller are evident through his conversations and depictions while illustrating what we are all created for and the transformation required to achieve that goal. He beautifully unfolds the need for salvation and guides the reader with understanding and patience.
Edward N. Brown delivers a witty and well-written retelling of a familiar story. The finite and abstract are united beautifully and seamlessly to provide a clear and fascinating rendition of the timeless and urgent plea calling mankind to repentance and salvation while being captured by masterful storytelling along the way. Poetry and Allegory From the Land Beyond the Crystal Sea is a powerful message cleverly presented to help readers understand the simplicity and power of such a transformation. The author understands his subject matter, from the nothing that was NOT nothing to the universe that was spoken into being. Edward N. Brown reveals his insights and presents them with passion and certainty. I highly recommend Poetry and Allegory From the Land Beyond the Crystal Sea as an easy-to-read and compelling book.
