Sacrilegious Cover? Dream Seeker Return of Joshua
We recently received a submission from Angel Jimenez where he ranted against the book Return of Joshua, the second Dream Seeker book and first Enneagram novel. Instead of printing his actual comments, which crossed the line even for us, we decided to respond ... just in case anyone else has been turned off by the cover.
First of all, not to give the story away ... but that is not the REAL Jesus Christ's hand on the cover. It's an ACTOR. In the beginning chapters, we see the greatest hoax in the history of world perpetrated on mankind! That cover depicts the ACTOR relaxing after a performance.
Second, the artist R.G. is not a bad person for painting such a cover. He was commissioned, and I think his work speak for itself. He is on our short list of artists for future Dream Seeker novel covers.
Third, you should NOT judge this book by its cover.
Fourth, Tony and Damian BOTH worked on the concept for the cover. They both approved of it, and there are zero regrets about it.

That cover is against God. I agree with Angel.
Clearly thats not Jesus, so its not sacrilegious.
because I dont remember that part of the bible where Jesus got down off of the cross and then sat back and relaxed with a scotch on the rocks while he smoked.
LOL. I don't remember that part, either.
Thank you, R.A.W.
