A new, completely revised edition of the 10-year-old bestseller. Intrigued by Marco Polo's description of the tombs of the Magi, Paul William Roberts headed for Iran in search of the real Three Wise Kings, Zoroastrian priests who worshipped the baby Jesus. On his travels, he investigated the first centuries of Christianity and the light that recent scholarship-notably the Dead Sea Scrolls-has shed on them. A bold counterpart to the Da Vinci Code, Journey of the Magi is compelling reading from a master storyteller.
