A Sudden Dawn Résumé

A Sudden Dawn: A Martial Arts Novel Goran Powell

Gold Winner - 2011 IP's Living Now AwardsGold Winner - 2011 eLit AwardsWinner - 2011 USA Best Book Award This epic historical fiction novel opens with a young man named Sardili born of the warrior caste in 507 A.D. Sardili realizes that he would rather seek enlightenment than follow his family's military legacy and sets out on a life-long quest for truth and wisdom. Sardili becomes the Buddhist monk Bodhidharma, known as Da Mo in China. He travels throughout India, brings Buddhism to China, and single handedly establishes the Shaolin Temple as the birthplace of Zen and the Martial Arts. A Sudden Dawn is a refreshing take on the mythical origins of Kung Fu with a good pace, enjoyable interpretation of legendary characters, and wonderfully written adventures during the long journey across Asia.

A Sudden Dawn Avis

Superbly crafted. Surges with action, intrigue and touching human relationships. I can't remember the last novel that has taken hold of my mind like this one and has kept me up late turning pages. Although this is a book of historical fiction, it is so grand, so rich, and so memorable, that you want it to be true. -- Loren W. Christensen Inspirational, beautifully written, expertly researched, and highly recommended. I loved it. -- Geoff Thompson, British Academy of Film, TV Arts As good as James Clavell's Shogun, masterfully written, and hard to put down. I cannot recommend Powell's book highly enough. It's freaking brilliant. -- Lawrence A. Kane, author of The Little Black Book of Violence
