I am looking for a novel that factually has the history of how the bible came to be. I am also looking for other novels about the history of Christianity/Catholicism before and after Christs time - any suggestions?
If it helps I'm looking for books that are Fact Based not Opinion Based that point to the Bible and the Religions being Misleading.
I do not know of any novels about "how the bible came to be" but here are some well written ones about the early history of Christianity:
Ann Rice has a couple of very nice novels about the life of Christ:
+ "Christ the Lord: Out of Egypt"
+ "Christ the Lord: The Road to Cana"
Lew Wallace wrote "Ben-Hur: A Tale of the Christ"
Lloyd C. Douglas wrote "The Robe"

I am looking for one book that contains the history of the Catholic Church. Non biased, just facts from all angles. One that has... 'all sides of the story'. All the events that have shaped the Church into what it is today. All the events 'good and bad'. Thanks.

Today in Catholic History – The Siege of Constantinople « Catholic ...
On this day in 1453, the forces of the Ottoman Sultan Mehmet II surrounded the city of Constantinople to begin a siege of the city that would end on 29 May 1453 with the fall of that city to the Ottoman forces and the end of the Byzantine Empire.
While the last Roman Emperor Constantine XI appealed for help from the West, Pope Nicholas V was unwilling to send help without an agreement to accept the decrees of the Council of Florence regarding union between the Orthodox and Catholic Churches. Though it is questionable how much help Nicholas could have provided considering the limited assistance Pope Eugene IV was able to provide in 1438 when the Emperor of Constantinople did agree to acknowledge papal authority.
Still some Western forces did arrive from the Italian city states. But the forces of Constantinople numbered only 7,000 [of which 2,000 were foreign mercenaries] and they faced a besieging army of 100,000.
...Today in Catholic History – The Trial of Father Henry Garnet, SJ ...
On 28 March 1606, Jesuit Father Henry Garnet was tried for eleven hours for alleged participation in the Gunpowder Plot to assassinate James I of England/VI of Scotland by blowing up the House of Lords. Though Garnett professed his innocence and claimed that anything he knew of the plot was protected by the seal of the confession, he was found guilty and sentenced to death. Father Garnet, SJ was executed on May 3, 1606 by hanging.
After his death, a head of straw with the blood of the Jesuit priest was taken as a relic. Later, the blood was said to have congealed into a likeness of the face of Father Garnet. This straw was later taken to the Jesuits at Liège but disappeared during the French Revolution.
The book, “A True And Perfect Relation Of The Whole Proceedings Against The Late Most Barbarous Traitors, Garnet A Jesuit And His Confederates” also dating from this same period is said to be bound in the skin of the Jesuit father and his face is said to appear on its cover .
