What is interesting about this sentence?
Strange sorceresses swallow scarlet swedes, see - snubbing saintliness.
HINT:
My first is in the kill zone, but not in no man's land
Answer
I think that ...
... the sentence can be rewritten with synonyms for each word so that the starting letters of the words correspond to the letters of the top row on an English keyboard in order:
Queer witches eat red turnips, you understand — ignorant of piety.
Here, "see" and "snubbing" are both replaced with two words. "Ignorant of" isn't really the same as snubbing; the ingoring is inadvertent for the former and deliberate for the latter. I tried to think of other words or expressions on the pattern of "i—ing on/of", but couldn't find anything useful. The rest seems to fit nicely, though.
Is there more to it?
I also thought that the sentence could perhaps be rewritten to fit every line of the typewriter. The second row starts off promising with "Alien spellcasters devour ...", but then trickles out. The seven letters of the bottom row could be matched by coalescing two words of the original sentence, and there is a b for beetroot, which could mean red swedes (with a bit of biological licence), but it comes too late on the row.
So let's not overthink it. I'll go with my original answer.
