History is speckled with spots of time during which nothing is noted. These blanks leave much to the imagination and people are often speculating on what they thing might have been. In the novel, Joshua The Odyssey Of A Man, the author makes a bold step to fill in and answer many questions surrounding a high profile gap in the story of man.
Many of the most widely recognized stories of all time are contained in the Bible, the book of the Christian faith. The accounts are in order though they have huge gaps between them which allows a lot of leeway for the inquisitive to speculate on what may have occurred. Among the most popular subjects is the missing period in the life of a man whose name and fame reach far and wide.
Jesus of Nazareth is known by Christian as the son of God and the Savior of souls, but he and his story are just as popular among people all practically all races, creeds and religions. The tale is so phenomenal that it is treasured by many. One interesting thing about it is that there is a span of about eighteen years, right in the middle of it, that has been left completely blank in the official account.
The Bible is the official account of Jesus' life and it begins with his immaculate conception, his birth and continues on until his 13th year when he is removed from the temples for contradicting the teachers. He then disappears until age 31, picking up with his teachings and the events leading up to his infamous crucifixion, his celebrated resurrection and his amazing ascension into Heaven.
In this fictional account about a man called Joshua and his life is a parallel to that of Jesus. Using other writings from that time and extensive research, the author was able to put together a likely scenario of the missing years. He studied the economic and social factors of the period so well that every character feels so real.
The author has such a talent for descriptive writing that his work of fiction reads almost flawlessly as a biographical account. He tells the tale with such vivid detail, answering some of the more pressing questions concerning marriage, children, work and travel. The story takes place in multiple lands including those of Egypt, Babylon, Athens, Rome and still others before bringing him back to Israel.
Joshua travels the land spreading the teaching of God and standing up for those who could not stand for themselves. He teaches that no man is without sin and therefore has no right to condemn others. This is shown when he stops a group of accusing men from stoning a woman to death for actions they deemed sinful.
Being heralded as perhaps the most well written works based on historical events, Joshua The Odyssey Of A Man is a leader in the genre. Each character, every location is so vividly described that the reader feels as if they are actually in the story. As close to fact as fiction can get, everything in this book has been meticulously created to come together as a momentous tale of speculation.
