Life's Heart Eternal a Novel by Julian Bound 'My name is Franc Barbour. I was born on the 20th July 1845 in the town of Saumur, deep in the heart of the Loire Valley, France. The truth of the matter is I simply never died.' These are the opening words a young nurse reads in an old leather bound journal given to her by a stranger. She soon uncovers the story of one man's journey through the centuries. From 1845 to present day, and to a backdrop of the world's conflicts and wars, Franc loses then encounters those closest to him again as they are reincarnated time and time again in different bodies. Be it brothers, friends, soulmates or enemies, those met with once more hold lessons as to how our actions in each lifetime often hold consequences in the next. In Franc's travels and adventures across the world an encounter with those reincarnated from his past is never far away. 'For who has never wondered what it would be like to live forever?'
