Media Reviews
The story of the gospel's rediscovery and salvation [The Lost Gospel by Herbert Krosney] reads like a Hollywood mystery. -The Boston Globe

Jesus said to Judas: You will exceed all of them. For you will sacrifice the man that clothes me. -The Gospel of Judas

Riveting....With the tenacity of a top-flight investigative reporter, Krosney pursued every facet of the discovery and reclamation of the text. With an uncanny knack for piecing together isolated data, he has provided us with scores of details that, were it not for his efforts, would have been lost forever. -Bart D. Ehrman

A dramatic story of the discovery of one of the most provocative gospels from the early Church. -Marvin Meyer, editor of The Gospel of Judas
