The Order of the Dragon:

the long version

This particular book, which is the first in a series as noted, is a goundbreaking and Orthodox/Monotheistic religion shattering piece of work. The author has set out, using a pivotal period in Monotheistic Religious History, to connect the themes used and religious texts of old; to shed light on the Dualism at play throughout the middle of the monothestic religions own struggles. The key here is a shared history that goes back in time even further than they can recognize (All of the leaders/Representatives of the World's religions have recognized this truth in signature etc. in Astana, Kazakhstan. However, they may be unwilling to let their followers know this as monotheisms are historically brutal and rely on their followers to adhere only to their interpretation of religion. There simply is no room for conflicting opinion even if factually accurate). This work also states early that it is the first of a series and attempt to set the stage for more to come. This has been done in the subsequent books by Clements and academic publications based in part, or mainly, by her works. Scholars have been challenged to take these ideas and move forward with research and analysis. That seed has began and serious academic research and logical discourse is beginning. However, the forces of religious suppression remain strong. As such, censorship of this kind of material has been seen. The question to all is not whether the dates are exact... but whether any challenge, based on things the leaders of all the Worls religions have attested to will be allowed!
