Since past few days was coming across the reviews/interviews etc regarding this new book called "The Last Patriot" which is hitting stores today. Author is Brad Thor who has already a NY Times Bestseller ("The First Amendment") under his belt. I have not read him so far .. but looking at the review and hearing the buzz...it seems his new book is going to cause a stir (and few Fatwas) for sure!
The theme seems very much like Da Vinci Code...just change Christianity with Islam. Though an work of fiction but the author claims that it is based on true facts. So just as in Da Vinci, here prophet Mohamed on his last days "said" something...which if revealed today will be catastrophic for Islam and the highest authorities will go to any extreme to stop this American Navy Seal hero from trying to go to the root and making it public. And in this backdrop Brad says he gives many of startling true facts about Islam and Quran and its history so far unknown to majority of us! Based on the author's interview, I came across this "interesting link" which if true, makes us believe that what the 3rd president of this country Thomas Jefferson dealt with 200 years back..is no way different than what the current US presidents are dealing with!
I am eager to see what more true facts it is going to give us...and finally if it can be as gripping, revealing and shocking as Da Vinci Code or just a mere copycat version of one of the most thriiling novel world has seen so far.
It certainly seems worth $13...and is going to be my next purchase from B&N.
