Not Just Another Messiah Come Lately


June 2007 – Bronx, NY

What does “The Matrix” ($171 million), “Lord of the Rings: Return of the King” ($ 377 million), “Star Wars” ($460 million), and “Dune” (well, okay it bombed) have in common? Correct. Each of the screenplays began as a novel. Each chronicles a hero’s journey. Each features a Messiah figure who combines a military and a spiritual prowess to foil the tyrannical reign of an evil empire. And, each has spawned sequels that have grossed close to or over a billion in worldwide box office sales.

Hundreds of novelists and screenwriters have ventured to duplicate the success of these pop classics. All have failed, until now. “American Messiah”(0-9793674-3-3, e-book, 120pp, $6.00) crafted by a master storyteller in James A. Hall, is a cinch to follow in the literary and motion picture footsteps of these classic Messiah mythologies. This post-apocalyptic thriller goes where the other haven’t, into the realm of the terrifyingly realistic. Uniquely, “American Messiah” approaches the issues of race, sex, and politics head on.
