I’m currently reading a few books, one of which is Keepers of the Grail.
I think it’s badly written, but for all that it’s quite interesting and I’d recommend it, if only for the fact you have to approach it with an open mind. The author is a bit too fond of a priori assumptions for my taste, but then nobody said this was a definitive scholarly work. It is, however, thought-provoking, especially if you happen to be a Christian, as I am.
I’ve finished this book now, actually two or three weeks ago, and have to say it’s still badly written. The long genealogical lists were especially wearisome and it felt as though the author was trying to collect more number plates than anyone else to establish his credibility. There were a few interesting and diverting passages and some which genuinely made me question conventional thinking, but it felt very much like a few good ingredients tossed into an otherwise second rate so called banquet.
Passages about monatomic gold and the benefits that accrue from it were fanciful in the extreme. That’s not to say they were wrong, since I have no truly persuasive evidence in front of me either way I’m willing to remain open-minded. But the way the author decided to take passages in this book as definitive proof is a little suspect, I think. You could usefully chop this book into 60-70 pages and probably still get the meat without the filler.
All in all I would say it’s an entertaining 10 minutes, but it wouldn’t sustain itself for an evening.
As always with my little book reviews, a link to Amazon for purchase is provided at the bottom of this page.
