Crown of Serpents on Masonic Central

Crown of Serpents
Crown of Serpents

Where does National Treasure meet The Lost Symbol?  Wound together into a Crown of Serpents.

Masonic fiction is an infrequent thing, especially when written by a brother. The Lost Symbol is a good example of the fraternity in a modern fiction, in the same way that National Treasure brought the fraternity to the cinema. This Sunday, we have the opportunity to talk about the latest edition of Masonic fiction from author Michael Karpovage, who has just released his new book Crown of Serpents.

From the books website the Crown of Serpents is a mystery thriller set in the former heartland of the Iroquois Empire and takes its hero, Jake Tununda, on a fast-paced hunt to find and protect the elusive crown. In the story he teams up with Rae Hart, who is an alluring state police investigator, and together they snake their way across a politically turbulent landscape marked with murder, lies, and deceit, deciphering codes, digging up war loot, and fending off a ruthless casino magnate. Their survival skills are put to the test when the clues to the crown ultimately lead them deep within sacred Indian caves hidden under the abandoned Seneca Army Depot where the magnitude of the crown’s power is revealed.

The Crown of Serpents is every bit as exciting as its synopsis suggests, and its weaving in of the fraternity of Freemasonry makes the mystery thriller all the more exciting.

Join us in this episode as we talk to author Michael Karpovage about his book, Masonic fiction in general and the real life history of Freemasonry that swirls around his new novel, in this hour long program on Masonic Central recorded Sunday, October 18th , 2009.

Have you reserved your copy?

Have you reserved your copy of the literary version of “National Treasure” yet? The Lost Symbol“Dan Brown’s next installment of the Da Vinci Code solving, Illuminati chasing symboligist Robert Langdon is due on shelves in about 2 weeks.

I think Freemasonry is already past hype having waited a couple of years for the Da Vinci Code follow up, but it doesn’t change the fact that the new book “The Lost Symbol” will have some net effect on the fraternity.

Why will the book have an impact?  Rumor has it that this new adventure has a story line that includes Freemasonry (and possibly Washington, the geometry of Washington D.C., and the Scottish Rite).

The end result for fraternity: a reawakened curiosity about the Freemasonry thanks to this high literary drama.

Maybe.

I pre-ordered my copy of “The Lost Symbol” yesterday so that I get it on the day it comes out.  I wonder if will live up to the hype that the last 5 years have built into it.

Dan Brown’s “The Lost Symbol” is available for pre-order on on Amazon now.
