About
Details
Is the desire for knowledge, let alone the use of it, a misuse of the mind? Perhaps even actively evil? From the tormented visions of a 13th Century prophet damned by the world... to the apocalyptic night when God is vanquished and all the devils are unleashed... AFTER SUCH KNOWLEDGE is James Blish's groundbreaking thematic trilogy, long-regarded as his finest work, comprising DR. MIRABILIS, BLACK EASTER, THE DAY AFTER JUDGEMENT and A CASE OF CONSCIENCE.
