Lord of Light

De: Roger Zelazny

Narrado por: Matt Godfrey

The boundaries between gods and mortals blur in a futuristic world where ancient Hindu deities reign supreme, not by divine right, but through advanced technology and manipulation of human consciousness. Enter the protagonist, Sam, who dares to challenge these self-proclaimed gods by resurrecting the forgotten concept of Buddhism, symbolizing a cosmic rebellion against tyranny and the timeless struggle for spiritual and intellectual freedom. As Sam channels the essence of the Enlightened One, he ignites a revolution that promises not only to destabilize the pantheon but also to redefine what it means to be human. Dive into this richly woven tapestry of myth, philosophy, and science fiction, where the fate of humanity teeters on the edge of an epic confrontation between ancient beliefs and the relentless quest for liberation.
