3.0 out of 5 stars Holy Mackerel!, 25 Sep 2006

By	bloo_toon_red (Scotland) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Holy Blood, Holy Grail (Mass Market Paperback)

It will come as no surprise to many to find out that I read this book immediately after DVC in a pursuit to find out what it really is all about.

I would heartily recommend this book as a companion piece to aforementioned da Vinci Code but as I say with that book, you must retain an open mind. I am reasonably convinced about large parts of this story, but in my opinion too many assumptions are made by the authors in order to make the story fit their own conclusion, as opposed to the other way around.

Certainly a good, factual (!?) piece, but you may find that it will not satisfy you, thus leading you down the "grail trail" to read more...

5.0 out of 5 stars Probably the most important book written in modern times., 27 Feb 2005

By A Customer

This review is from: Holy Blood, Holy Grail: The Secret History of Christ: The Shocking Legacy of the Grail (Hardcover)

Is it possible that the author of the previous review is a member of Opus Dei? Such blinkered and biting negativity would certainly seem to point in that direction! Either that, or the author prefers to bury his/her head in the sand rather than face up to probable reality.

If you have the courage and intellect to question the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, 'The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail' will, in all probablity, be the most important book you will ever read. Within its pages, Lincoln, Baigant and Leigh offer the intelligent, questioning reader an alternative - and, in all possibility, correct - account of the history of Christianity and the life of the man commonly known as Jesus the Christ.

I will not hint at what conclusions the authors reach. They are highly controversial, to say the least. It suffices to say that if you are the type of person who prefers to know the truth, then 'The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail' should be essential reading for you. It will certainly change the way you think forever.

(If you have already read Dan Brown's 'Da Vinci Code', now's the time to read the real thing!)

Kind regards

5.0 out of 5 stars Truth at last, 27 Jan 2004

By	"jason-c" - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail (Paperback)

This book delves deep into the heart of christian history, not to mention a massive investigation of the templars, and their shady masters, the priory of sion.

The authors begin with a much covered mystery surrounding a church in southern france, and soon move deeper into the mystery than others; they analyse possible scenarios for the bizare circumstances involved in centuries of events.

Much of the work, pertains to an organisation known as "le priere de sion". The authors effectivly prove the existance of an organisation, which has been working underground for many hundereds of years, apparently bent on what seems an unfathomable goal ... the restoration of a french royal bloodline to the thrown ... a bloodline presumed extinct a milenium ago. The priorys influence however, spreads farther than this, what is said is franky frightening.

Despite a perhaps over zealously extensive history of the "alleged" grand masters of the priory, the book moves to shake the very foundations of the church, and constructs a plausible argument for an incredible sequence of events. To share these in a review would be criminal, suffice to say however, you will never look at a man on a cross the same way again. There are now new meanings for the terms "grail", "crucifixtion" and "jesus".
