Product Description
The first publication of The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail, almost fifteen years ago, sparked off a world-wide storm of controversy, reverberations of which are still resounding throughout the Western world. The book's conclusions, and the new material in this revised edition, are persuasive and to many will be shocking, even dangerous. Whatever your views, this is truly a book that you will not be able to set aside.

Rating: [4 of 5 Stars!], Tuesday 12 September, 2006
Reviewer: J. Chippindale from Yorkshire, United Kindgom - Mainland
This book has recently gained a huge amount of publicity with the court case between the authors and the author of the Da Vinci Code, Dan Brown. I purchased the book on the back of that wave of publicity and having now read both books cannot really see what the court case was all about. The books could not be more different.[...] Most of the books written today contain regurgitated information from other books, either factual or fiction.
This book has a basis in fact, although much of it may be the vivid imagination of the authors. To be honest I don't know the answer. The book is both controversial, shocking and deeply moving. It is interesting and thought provoking. Whether you believe the conclusions that the authors come to, is a different matter and one for the individual. Perhaps the authors findings are as plausible an account of the life and times of Jesus as the one generally recognised by the church as true. It is a matter of the individuals faith. It is very difficult, if not impossible to prove anything either way.
I enjoyed reading the book, that is not to say that I agreed with its findings.
