Kurzbeschreibung
The tomb of Rozabal in Kashmir has contained the body of a great saint called Yuz Asaf since 112 A.D. But who was Yuz Asaf and what secret does the ancient tomb contain? Father Vincent Morgan is unwittingly sucked into the Rozabal tornado when flashes of his own previous lifetimes reveal some uncomfortable truths about the life and death of Jesus Christ. Vincent is soon caught in the crossfire between the Osama-bin-Laden inspired warriors of Islam, led by Ghalib-bin-Isar, and the fundamentalists of the Crux Decussata Permuta. The secret held securely within Rozabal for two millennia threatens to upset the world's balance of power. Zipping around the world caught up in a whirlwind of events, people, religion and time, from Jesus to Muhammad; from the Crusades to 9/11; from the Vatican to the White House; from Skull & Bones to the Illuminati; from Buddhist meditation to past-life regression; from the Virgin birth to nuclear destruction; and from Mary Magdalene to Osama-bin-Laden; The Rozabal Line has it all.

Better than the Da vinci code
11. Dezember 2007
Format:Taschenbuch
This is a must have for fans of religious conspiracy thrillers like Dan Brown's best sellers. This book is a much more fast paced thriller than others like it. The novel takes you traveling through human history as the story comes to a climax on December 21st 2012. It is a show down between Islamist terrorists, a corrupt Catholic Church, and the Illuminati. Through out you will learn about many theories about Jesus and Christianity. Like how Rome created Catholicism by turning Jesus into a God and giving him many attributes of Pagan Gods so he would be accepted. (In Koine Greek Kathlicos means universal, that is where the word Catholic comes from). Constantine created a univeral church to unite the empire. You will also see the theory that Jesus survived the cross and traveled to India where he died. The main characters are a Catholic Priest, a new age pychic (his aunt), and a Japanese assasin. What is different about this book is the flashbacks to these characters past lives where their Karma is explained through what they did in past lives. I have never heard of this kind of story line and found it very thought provoking. This is an exiting and thrilling read and you might learn several things as you make your way through to the end. If you are looking for a great conspiracy theory thrill ride, it does not get better than this.

I Never Thought of it Like This; A Pleasant Surprise!
29. November 2007
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
I have just finished reading 'The Roza Bal Line' and smiled through many passages and ideas in the book because they ringed true for me. Although I lived in Kashmir specifically to investigate the claims about the tomb, and although I met often with Muslims who claim they are descended from Yuz Asaf (the name for Jesus in Kashmir) it never occured to me to connect ideas the way Shawn Haigins has in this book. Jesus descendents in the east, where the world least expects them? Jesus descendents as modern day fundamentalists and terrorists? Of course! Why not? Why hadn't I thought of that! Haigins did a terrific job with this fictional account. The world would benefit more if he put his obvious investigative reporting-writing style and energies into writing non-fiction. I did find some historical errors in the book, but I attribute these to the fiction premise and not to any lack of ability on the author's part. He is a lucid thinker and writer, and Roza Bal can definately benefit from his continued contributions on the subject. Thanks Shawn, for an awesome task splendidly accomplished.

Fast Paced Multi-Century Intrigue
2. Dezember 2007
Format:Taschenbuch
The Rozabal Line is a tale of secrets and conspiracies, adventure and romance, power and glory stretching back to the ancient world and forward to the near future. It encompasses many tantalizing elements, any one of which would make for a fascinating novel: revisionist religious history, mysterious organizations which exert their influence over many centuries, modern technological marvels,and modern political/social issues like terrorism. To be his first novel, Shawn Haigins has done a commendable job of tying the many disparate parts together in a cohesive whole. It speaks well for his future as a novelist.
The Rozabal Line refers to a mysterious tomb in India and a bloodline which may, or may not, descend from Jesus Christ. Despite this seeming similarity to a well known novel by Dan Brown, The Rozabal Line manages to outdo its rival by chronicling several different story lines which run parallel through the book, some taking place in the near future (2012) while others date to the first years of the great religions of Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, and Hinduism. There is much to ponder here, as Haigins does a superb job of chronicling many intriguing similarities between the foundation stories of Christianity and other, now extinct, faiths. He provides copious notes directing the interested reader to many books and websites which provide more details for these ideas. (The story can be enjoyed even if the reader does not accept some or all of these claims, by the way.) By the final chapters, Haigins ties the many loose ends up neatly with a satisfying conclusion.
