Well, I've just been reading
Jesus Potter Harry Christ (don't be put off by the title! It isn't sensationalist and is actually rather scholarly). It's quite a fascinating book--one of those books that takes the facts you already know (at least in broad terms) and presents them viewed through a different lens...
So it's a book well worth reading and, courtesy of the author (Derek Murphy), I have three copies to give away! To find out how you can win one, scroll to the end of the post.
Before you do that, though, you might want to learn a little more about the book. I fired off some questions to Derek ideas and how they came to him. Here are his answers--they'll give you a flavour of what the book is all about.
What's the basic premise of your book?
What first interested you in the Jesus myth?
How do you go about creating a god?
Are all Eurasian mythologies underpinned by a single cosmic archetype?
What are the similarities between the the Roman and Greek mysteries and the Jesus myth--and how do we know which direction the influence went?
Tell us about the schisms in the early Church
Why did the 'Jesus is real' faction win out?
