Why do you think the preface was put in? Was it written by the author or the current editor?
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure why it was added. I haven't found it useful to the story currently.
ReplyDeleteIt was written by the current editor.
O.K. What purpose does the preface serve in this case? Try to take the story out of the dark ages into new light? Help folks that don't know about the time in which the story is set? How is the book coming along now?
