The Eternal Messiah: Jesus of K'Turia - Paperback

by W. R. Pursche (Author), Michael Gabriele (Author)

In the distant future, on a planet far from Earth, a religious preacher appears just as war threatens to engulf the galaxy. He brings a compelling message of sacrifice, encouraging the people to break free from their meaningless and lifeless customs. His gospel challenges both the ritualistic religious leaders and an oppressive occupying power. His name is Jesus. On the other side of the galaxy, Treb Captain Win's research ship is commandeered by the military to undertake a covert mission to find a missing freighter carrying illicit weapons. Along on the mission are two troublesome humans: a shady government official who isn't telling Win the whole story about the mission, and a scientist who has developed a controversial theory about the connection between religion and cultural advancement. When the search for the weapons leads to K'Turia, Win and his companions are caught between Jesus, the priests, and their enemies. Drawn into an unfolding drama that is eerily familiar to what happened on Earth, they are forced to make a desperate choice: save the galaxy or save Jesus.
