The Stranger Between Us

The Stranger Between Us is Benjamin's premiere novella and ninth book. In Texas, Bosly Granger recurs in meeting with an outsider, the illusive Brandt Tilly, who is nauseating as the hiccups. Newcomer Brandt stumbles upon Bosly's girlfriend Teresa, laying claim to herself and his adversary's business. If the run-ins ever stop, Bosly could collect himself. Instead, he might become the intruder at large before any removal. Benjamin Anderson rendered both the storybook tale and a musical score for The Lion King at an early age. Disney and Broadway releases for it followed, though Benjamin's credit as forerunner has remained chiefly unrevealed. He encouraged the late great James Earl Jones to voice Mufasa, once a reclusive movie credit within Star Wars himself. * * * Critics universally acclaim The Lion King, now the world's number one musical. * * * "One of the great wonders of a film like The Lion King is that it is a joint effort beyond anything in traditional drama or film. Hundreds of animators, writers, actors, musicians join together in an effort like this one, which took four years to produce. It was work well worth doing." - Tom Long, Santa Cruz Sentinel
