The Cartaphilus Saga: book#1 Amissio

By: Joe C Combs 2nd

David Gerrard is a reporter for the tabloids with definite principals: he only publishes stories he believes. For 10 years, Mark Long gave him stories, detailed stories from important moments in history each with an interesting twist. Today Mark presents Tony Vargas, an expert on the Roman Empire period, with an ancient sword which Tony says is a first century Roman gladius. Over the next few days, Mark tells David the story of the sword and final hours of Jesus Christ's life Mark had accidentally used the pronoun "we" instead of "they", and the vigilant reporter had caught his slip. Cornered, Mark admits he is 2000 years old. David is angry at the waste of time, but Mark says he doesn't need David to believe him, he needs him to believe the story so his readers will believe. He fails to disprove Mark, so he allows himself to believe that Mark is actually Marcus Cartaphilus Longus. If true, how many other stories could Mark have? Would he unearth more lies & half-truths of history?
