Eye Witness: a Fictional Tale of Absolute Truth: Eye Witness (Book One)

by Robert James Luedke

Overview

Amid the violence and chaos of the present day Middle East, remarkably preserved first century documents are discovered by seismic researchers beneath the foundations of present day Jerusalem. None of the experts called in by the Israeli government can decipher this mysterious text, so as a last resort they call in American archaeologist, Dr. Terry Harper, known around the world as, “The Bone Man.” What Dr. Harper finds through his translation, is a previously undiscovered, eyewitness account of Jesus’ final week in Jerusalem. Will it confirm or discount the Gospel accounts of this event that have guided people for thousands of years? Only Dr. Harper has the key to unlocking this mystery…and sharing it may cost him his life! At its core, Eye Witness presents a unique and fully illustrated version of the Passion Story of Jesus, combined with a modern day political thriller and all in the graphic novel format, so popular with teen to young adult readers.

This is the trade paperback edition of the first book in the Eye Witness graphic novel trilogy.

What People are Saying About This

From the Publisher

“Eye Witness is an anima style that the kids like. I think it's good to get the message out in a way that kids will read it. More young people will potentially pick up this, than a Bible!"

Dr. Jim Wicker, Professor of New Testament Studies:Southwest Seminary

“Very compelling and thought provoking. The artwork is incredible. I could tell a ton of work and prayer went into it development.”

Mike Johnson/Youth Pastor: Fellowship Church

“I have just finished reading Eye Witness and this fledgling seminary student is again made aware of how little he knows! Thank you for an entertaining and powerful story.”

Jim Guida, Director of Youth Ministries: Bethany Presbyterian Church

The pacing and dialogue are pro-class.”

Jeffrey Weiss, Dallas Morning News

“I was given more information in these pages than in many Bible handbooks and Study Bibles I have read. This does more to present the Gospel message in an interesting way, than anything in a long time.”
