Buddha's Thunderbolt

"What if everything we knew about Merlin was a lie?


What if Merlin was actually a Buddhist monk called Merthen and also prone to hallucinations! What if he was taken as a slave by the Huns and transported back to Europe? Buddha's Thunderbolt elaborates the tale of this most peculiar man, a 5th Century rationalist, who regards magic as tom-foolery, druids as buffoons, and knights as glorified thugs. The last thing he ever wants is to be mentoring an orphan boy. However he sees that this boy might be special & could carry on the Buddha’s good name!

Most folks at the bay market think Merlin is a bit mad. He claims to have traveled from Britain through India to China and back again. His surrealistic visions, from horrifying flashbacks to a chess match with Lord Ganesha, are a burden he has learned to bear. But what of the mysterious Lady Gopi, who appears to him in various animal forms? Is she a delusion as well? Read ahead to find out the truth for yourself!"
