The Department of Truth
The Department of Truth
Jack Johnston is an ordinary bloke with a seemingly ordinary life--until the day he feels a jolt, sees a bright light, and hears the words: The Department of Truth. He finds himself suddenly propelled on a mystical roller coaster ride through unfamiliar and magical landscapes, and begins to learn about life, people, and his own personal longings.
This young man while wandering in strange lands meets different kinds of people, each with their own unique cultures and views of life. Jack also visits deeper realities where he explores the human condition, his own thought processes, and the path to faith, which challenge him to learn and grow.
Join Jack on his existential ride through life, and the poignant tale of his search, with giants, talking doorways, new worlds, magic carpets and wise new friends...

About the Author
Connolly, James D.: - James Duncan Connolly is an Australian writer and artist/ painter of Irish descent. He grew up in a Christian family, but as a young man his quest for knowledge and understanding of the meaning of life and the spirit, led him towards the Bahá'í Faith and has been a member of the Bahá'í community since then. His driving interest has been the nature of the human creature, and this life. It has led him to many sources from psychology to history to religious texts. He also believes in the wisdom of nature and in human inner vision as great sources of joy and understanding; but believes that only by living life can anyone really hold knowledge. His writing and art are greatly influenced by his Faith and life experiences, and those of humanity. Although he has been writing philosophical realisations and poetry, under the acronym JDC for a number of years, this is his first publication, and his debut novel; and the first of a trilogy.
