Hello, Kyle!
It is great to hear from you. A very insightful question.
This particular volume is not especially controversial, though it depends on what you hold sacred, I suppose.
To some, the idea that there might be secret layers of meaning in the Gospels is itself a controversial claim to make.
For others, the suggestion that there were two forms of Gnosticism which were diametrically opposed to one another is a controversial claim.
In fact, the relationship between my work and Dan Brown's is quite similar to the relationship between these two forms of Gnosticism. I am not a fan of his work, but it was the book
Holy Blood, Holy Grail that got me interested in Gnosticism, which is the same book that Dan Brown's wife read. She then explained it to Dan several times, using short, easy words and the rest, as they say, is history.
Still, though
Holy Blood, Holy Grail was one of my influences, my research led me in a different direction. Eventually, I did find some rather controversial items, but I have saved most of them for the fourth volume.
Ok, so right now Volumes One and Two are FREE July 9th only!
