Review	Fontbrune J-C. now combined into one book, the first part 'Countdown to Apocalypse' was published, in 1980, by, Editions du Rocher and translated by Hutchinson & co (pub),Ltd in 1983. The 2nd part by Editions du Rocher in 1982, as 'Nosradamus 2: Into the Twenty-First Century', translated, Hutchison & co (pub) Ltd 1984. The Edition I have combines both, pub in 1993 by Cresset. ISBN. 0-09-177111-0. There are two good reasons any would be translator and interpreter should own a copy of this book, his French is generally reliable, and most importantly he gives the French versions of the disputed Sixains, but his translations are appalling, and if they are bad, and they are, then nothing he discerns from them can be anything but nonsense. Despite this, it's a must have for the French versions of the Sixains alone.
