Planned Obsolescence: A manuscript of life
by Lorin Brandon
The most hopelessly enslaved consider themselves free…
A mysterious, ancient manuscript is found two miles underground in a goldmine. Archaeologists are fascinated, and the story gains the attention of the Vatican.
Archaeologist Dr. Manuel Consuelo is intrigued by the artifact, and believes it will divulge information never previously accessible to humans. This other-worldly manuscript will confirm his notions, once he is finally able to examine it, under the watchful eye of the Vatican.
However, his conclusions outrage the clergy. Is humanity free, or are we the subjects of invisible overlords? Is control exerted on this earth through the reign of kings, priests and dictators, as shills for the overlords?
In this remarkable novel, author Lorin Brandon imagines human existence in a different light; one that establishes our true existence and allows us to imagine greater freedoms, instead of complacent control and manipulation. Perhaps this artifact possesses the potential to enable humanity to envision a more liberated, truthful existence.

This was a brilliant story. I loved the opening, and as someone who has been a bit disillusioned by organized religion, I really appreciated the satire in this book. I appreciated the way religion was approached, and I liked Dr Consuelo from the start. The book has quite a bit of depth, and will make you re-examine how you think about religion and God, even if you aren’t a believer. Highly recommend, especially for those who are a bit jaded with life.
