I have to admit, I had never heard of the Diamond Sutra until I picked up Journeys on the Silk Road. To be honest, it kind of reminded me a bit of Dan Brown's writing and the Indiana Jones movies. It had that adventurous feel, as well as, the intrigue of discovering an important piece of history.
Morgan and Walters have definitely done their research -the details in this book are astounding and will keep you thoroughly absorbed. It did get a bit dry, in certain parts, but it was all relevant to the tale. I know I feel a lot smarter since I read this book! High in intrigue, adventure, scholarly findings, with a character that traverses among many continents, the historical facts alone are astounding. Highly recommend!
