The Buddha Conspiracy: Book One of the Ashoka Chronicles

by Alan Bassett

Overview

During the first quarter of the twenty-first century, religious fanaticism is on the verge of provoking a Third World War. Nine men and women have been drawn into a conspiracy to undermine the foundations of a world order already in danger of disintegrating into chaos. The conspirators are plotting a revolution that will radically alter human consciousness according to a design created 2500 years ago. They have the power to stop the global holocaust, but will their Design for the future be the Utopia they have promised, or will it create a brave new world enslaved by the dictates of a theocratic tyranny. One man must choose: either trust the Buddha Conspirators or sabotage their master plan. The fate or fortune of the human race depends on his decision.

A love affair that spans the centuries, two families divided by love, hate, and the lust for power, and a secret society bent on undermining the political and religious foundations of the world order are the potent elements of this apocalyptic tale of Eastern mysticism, international intrigue, and global war.
