The
fourth novel from C. Frederick Braun raises questions about the
seventeen lost years of Jesus Christ.
Georgetown,
TX, USA (June 4, 2014) -- The long awaited novel ISSA by Texas
author C. Frederick Braun is now available on Kindle with special
pricing in time for Father's Day. The book has been in the works
since 2010 and is controversial in that it provides convincing
evidence that Jesus Christ spent the seventeen lost years, those not
found in the New Testament, with the Buddhist's in India and Tibet.
"I
studied the Hemis Scrolls, discovered by Nicholas Notovitch in 1890
in Ladakh, India and used them as a basis for the book," noted
Braun. "Additionally, I read the actual English translations of
the scrolls conducted in 2005, which were almost exactly what
Notovitch had reported. These scrolls are the only works we have
depicting the life of Jesus written before the early fourth century.
I then took it a step further and speculated on what would happen if
scrolls, actually written by Jesus Christ, were discovered. The story
is fictional and is kind of a cross between D. Brown and National
Treasure but the history is very real." he added.
In
the novel, Dennis Wicks, a young American soldier and former Army
linguist goes off on a walkabout through Asia after a tour in Iraq.
He purchases an old Buddhist Alms Bowl in a market and discovers a
hidden compartment in the wicker carrier that contains leafy scrolls.
Intrigued he begins the tedious process of translating them from
ancient Pali to Sanskrit, To Tibetan and finally English. What he
discovers will change the course of history. In his hands he is
holding the only documents on earth actually written by the hand of
God.
Soon,
operatives from the Mossad, The Vatican, The Russian Mob and the CIA
are trying to get their hands on the scrolls and the bowl and Dennis
finds that people will go to any extreme to possess these scared
scrolls.
Eliciting
the help of his archeologist sister and a prominent religious studies
professor, they travel from India to Pakistan to Athens and finally
Tel Aviv trying to protect the relics and tell the world the Good
News...They just have to live long enough to do it.
"There
is a message for everyone in this book regardless of your religious
beliefs. Many who have read it tell me it strengthened their belief
system and gave them a better understanding of the similarities
rather than the differences between Buddhists, Christians and other
world religions." Braun said.
A
translated copy of the actual Hemis Scrolls, believed to have been
written about two years after Christ's death, is included in the back
of the book.
Braun
has written four novels and his latest military thriller in the Doug
Hammer series will be released in July. That book, The Merida
Compact, will join his books Border War, Two Seconds
and ISSA on Kindle and Amazon. Terminal Threat,
another novel in the series will be released for the holiday season.
Braun
has also written two non-fiction books entitled Success Is Your
Birthright and Above All Else--The Patriotic struggle
to secure America's Borders.
His
children's history book, Dooney's World--The Adventures of
Dooney The Drummer Boy is also available on Amazon.
