The eighth scroll By Dr. Laurence B. Brown
THE EIGHTH SCROLL
The Eighth Scroll is a work of fiction. All incidents and dialogue, and all characters except well-known historical and public figures, are products of the author’s imagination and are not to be construed as real.
Where real-life historical or public figures appear, the situations, incidents, and dialogues concerning those persons are entirely fictional and are not intended to depict actual events or to change the fictional nature of the work.
Some historical events and quotations are represented as real, and in these cases, readers are encouraged to verify sources and come to their conclusions regarding the veracity of such passages. In all other respects, any resemblance to persons living or dead is entirely coincidental
