Brotherhood of the Snake

Philip Gardiner

Sinossi

Based on years of research into the real and ancient serpent cult that once dominated the globe, this exciting adventure is a journey into sacred mysteries and secret organisations discovered by Gardiner in real life.

Dan Brown may have used other people's factual work to create the Da Vinci Code, but here Gardiner uses his own real-life experiences and knowledge to forge a unique and engrossing work of fiction.

This book reveals the real arcane secrets about mankind in an enjoyable and action-packed adventure. Uniting fact and fiction, Gardiner takes us through the world of the adept and mystic into the real world.

Hundreds of years ago any author revealing these truths would have been burned at the stake - can you decide what is fact and what is fiction?

Algernon Blackwood: The Man Who...

Algermon Blackwood

A researcher goes on an expedition to find "The Tablets of the Gods" which have plagued his dreams since his boyhood. He finds them, and the horrible truth of humanity's true purpose in the universe. This story, "The Man Who Found Out" is an example to me of pure cosmic horror in that the horror comes totally from knowledge which is (in-story) so terrible that it forever blights the minds of anyone who discovers it. Two highly intelligent and well informed men, Professor Ebor and then Dr. Laidlaw, learn the contents of the Tablets of the Gods, and even though this information is short enough to be on two ordinary-sized tablets, it is enough to induce absolute belief in its veracity and utterly destroy hope in the reader. Yeah, that is pretty scary. There are no monsters in the tale, nothing but Forbidden Knowledge -- which, apparently, is Forbidden with good reason
