This is the mostly fictional autobiography of Brianan Tudor, who might be living with his current wife in Northern California. If so, he is more than four hundred years old. He is the illegitimate son of King James VI of Scotland, who later became King James I of the Scottish and English Crowns. Brianan is an honest and honorable man, who tells of his impossibly long life. Just how much of Brianan's story is not fictional, the reader must decide. Is the story told as fiction because it must be? Is this a string of biographical sketches strung together under the guise of one man? Why is there a steady supply of gemstones to support him throughout his life? These are questions that can be pondered as the story unfolds. Most of the dates that are offered seem to be authentic in terms of history. Brianan's memories of conversations with his first wife in Scotland are foggy. His memories of his other wives during his extensive lifetime are vivid. Brianan was (is?) a loving, sensitive, and passionate Christian man, and he is gifted with many languages. Whatever the reader decides about Brianan's story, he's a good storyteller.
