Edward N Brown

Edward N Brown is a storyteller with a background in science, philosophy, ancient history, and theology. His technique is to blend the interesting nuggets of myth, saga, historical record, biography, romance, scientific fact, poetry, spirituality, and personal drama – all mixed together into an informative, but easy-reading, faith-based tale of wonder and awe. An educational background of three advanced degrees (PhD + two MS) has contributed to his insights on Christianity, Religion, Antiquity, Morality, and Human Nature. Classified as ancient religious history, his works represent a speculative fusion of style – facts and events in riveting story form – drama and delight that will inform, entertain, and inspire readers of all ages.
