writers block
Am churning out about 3000 words a week at the moment. Will keep you posted.
Here is an excerpt from the prologue
Setting the Scene
The theological war raging in Europe was churning up bad blood on the other side of the world. The Catholics, a strong and fervent missionary force, were unrelenting in their push of the Christian Frontier. From bases in Goa, the Philippines and Macau, the push further forward was penetrating even the mysterious world of the shogun.
The nascent protestant churches of Northern Europe, yet to implement a global missionary strategy, were more concerned with trade routes than church planting. Zealous protestant businessmen and their companies devised plans to undermine the hold of catholic trade on the far away places of gold. Deception, schemes and various forms of subterfuge were in full swing.
