All he would like is to return to his planet to take revenge on the revolutionaries who exterminated his family, but after meeting John the Baptist, the difficult path of redemption will begin that will lead him to climb the cross in the name of Love. All this while Judas 1091 struggles to defend himself from the intrigues of power that upset his life and The Sect plots to bring down the civilization of the Year 2178.

Planet Earth has been cured of almost all its ills, Judas lives in an age where there are no delinquencies or diseases and everyone has a home and a job. The Power is managed by a caste of lay priests, who administer it according to simple rules dictated by the Bible and pass on the title by descent. It would all seem simple and beautiful, but under that crust of perfection and false well-being there is a thread of intrigue, mystery, and falsehood. The most powerful of the priests, Sir Jonathan, carries on the Sky Project in great secrecy: one of his scientists has almost completed the construction of the time machine, he dreams of using it to go and take Jesus in the year 30 and take him with him, to give him the world that he was unable to create two thousand years earlier.

Jesus was the ferocious tyrant of an extraterrestrial civilization, he was exiled and his spaceship fell to Earth.

He would like to see the time necessary to recharge the spaceship's solar batteries pass quickly, to be able to return to his planet and take revenge on those who exterminated his family. But thanks to the meeting with John the Baptist, who will lead him to conversion, he will atone for the sins committed in the other life and will try with a thousand doubts to teach love to men. He will fight ardently and will climb the cross. Fred is the best friend of Judas, unbeknownst to him he is the head of the Sect, a revolutionary group. He is the only one who, thanks to his grandfather, knows of the existence of antennas. He wants to destroy them to make men free, to do so he is preparing a group of citizens to lead to the revolt. Sir Jonathan has identified in Nicole, wife of Judas, the perfect woman who must be the companion of Jesus. By joining in marriage they will give rise to a divine lineage, destined to rule the world over the centuries. Nicole, by means of a staging conceived by Sir Jonathan and his collaborators, pretends to be dead. In doing so he saves Judas and Jodie from the lethal blackmail of which they are unwittingly the object. After having also taken his daughter from him, however, Sir Jonathan decides to hibernate Judas because he fears that he may discover the deception. Freddy, who is also a member of the Hibernation Unit, warns him. He kidnaps the girl and escapes aboard one of the time machines. Thus a whirlwind of chases and betrayals, fights and revolutions is born, which develop through time and space. Judas ends in the year 30, there he meets Jesus and joins him to protect him, but due to yet another blackmail Translator: Andrea Lepri PUBLISHER: TEKTIME

David had it all. At just twenty-nine, he was prepared to receive the promotion that would put him on the fast track to a successful career. But the morning of his promotional interview brought about shocking news that sent David’s perfectly systematic life spiraling and him on a quest to find his missing brother, Tim, with whom David had had no contact with since the death of their mother. A staunch atheist, David’s views were radically different from those of his brother, who he knew had become involved with a fanatical Christian organization. Out of a sense of obligation to fulfill his mother’s last wish, David set off on a quest to find his brother. But what he didn’t count on was that the search for his brother would bring him face to face with his faltering belief in God and a two-thousand-year-old war between Christians and Satanists. As he dives deeper into this underground world, David begins to realize his love of his brother and of God and his extraordinary abilities, which may finally bring resolution to this ancient conflict. As he discovers these revelations, he has to help answer one of the most important questions in history: Where is the Testimonial?

Book Description
Nathan Knight was a youngster with a shabby background - a nothin' from nowhere was how he put it, with no past and less future. Not until he met up with Hannibal Reno, a bounty hunter, a man with no feelings towards the men he tracked, just a craving desire for the reward money their capture brought. But Reno was going slowly blind - he struck at sundown to even his chances with his sharper-eyed victims - and eagerly Nathan became his "eyes", steadily learning the deadly profession, stifling his conscience with the knowledge that the men he hunted were not human beings only outlaws and killers deserving of capture or death. It was not until Nathan trailed and caught the most wanted man in the South-west that he began to question what he was doing and what he had become. And it was not until he had to risk his own life to save his captive that he realised he had to leave the Sundown Trail - and fast.
