Book Description

Is the traditional, accepted view of the life of Christ in some way incomplete?

- Is it possible Christ did not die on the cross?

- Is it possible Jesus was married, a father, and that his bloodline still exists?

- Is it possible that parchments found in the South of France a century ago reveal one of the best-kept secrets of Christendom?

- Is it possible that these parchments contain the very heart of the mystery of the Holy Grail?

According to the authors of this extraordinarily provocative, meticulously researched book, not only are these things possible -- they are probably true! so revolutionary, so original, so convincing, that the most faithful Christians will be moved; here is the book that has sparked worldwide controversey.

Michael Baigent, Henry Lincoln, and Richard Leigh, authors of The Messianic Legacy, spent over 10 years on their own kind of quest for the Holy Grail, into the secretive history of early France. What they found, researched with the tenacity and attention to detail that befits any great quest, is a tangled and intricate story of politics and faith that reads like a mystery novel. It is the story of the Knights Templar, and a behind-the-scenes society called the Prieure de Sion, and its involvement in reinstating descendants of the Merovingian bloodline into political power. Why? The authors of Holy Blood, Holy Grail assert that their explorations into early history ultimately reveal that Jesus may not have died on the cross, but lived to marry and father children whose bloodline continues today. The authors' point here is not to compromise or to demean Jesus, but to offer another, more complete perspective of Jesus as God's incarnation in man. The power of this secret, which has been carefully guarded for hundreds of years, has sparked much controversy. For all the sensationalism and hoopla surrounding Holy Blood, Holy Grail and the alternate history that it outlines, the authors are careful to keep their perspective and sense of skepticism alive in its pages, explaining carefully and clearly how they came to draw such combustible conclusions.

From AudioFile

Okay, DA VINCI CODE fans, here's a compelling, scholarly work that tells you more than you want to know about the Christ cover-up. However, it does not work well in audio. It's not the fault of narrator Simon Prebble, who does a fine job; it's the nature of the incredibly complicated work. It's impossible to keep track of the hundreds of names, places, and dates that concern the Knights Templar, the Catholic Church, the Freemasons, the Spanish Inquisition, and dozens of secret sects. Furthermore, many of the names are pronounced with heavy French accents, making them hard to understand. It all becomes a blur, and listeners will wish they had the book in hand so they could re-read key passages. M.S.
