The Dragon Legacy: The Secret History of an Ancient Bloodline [Paperback]

Nicholas de Vere (Author), Tracy R. Twyman (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: April 10, 2004

This book outlines in detail the ancient dragon bloodline, going much further than his previous book, Genesis of the Grail Kings, co-authored with Sir Laurence Gardner. Where did the bloodline come from and what did it mean? Were those who carried it blessed with great powers? What influence did they have on the ancient world? Did elves, fairies and vampires really exist? If so, who were they? This extremely well-researched book reveals many mysteries from our past, including why the actual blood from this bloodline is so important, what kind of magic once existed and how it was lost.

Nicholas de Vere describes a race of beings, similar in many respects to J.R.R. Tolkien's Elves, who were priest kings and queens, ruling by virtue of their bloodline and genetics. They were educated and initiated into sacred knowledge of their origins and kept their bloodline pure by pharaonic marriage customs.
He considers his race as a sub species, with different DNA to the "masses" and this predisposes them to certain attributes, facilitating access to transcendent states of mind. Living in a symbiotic relationship with nature they ruled through a hierarchical system of defined and complementary roles.

He discusses the migration of his peoples from their homeland of Scythia, west into Europe. Using etymological analysis he provides fascinating evidence for the far reaching extent of Scythian influence in Europe and the UK and the source of common origin.

He outlines how the christian church manufactured its religion according to whatever information best served its agenda. The fraudulent Donation of Constantine, written well after the death of Emperor Constantine, empowered the church to appoint kings, thus usurping the right to rule through blood. They systematically eliminated those of the grail dynasty, such as the Merovingians and suppressed their heritage.
He also describes how the church manipulates people through its concept of primitive morality; accentuating polarities by making good synonymous with light, positive and male, and evil synonymous with dark, negative and female. Furthermore, it distanced religion from nature, branding nature as evil. The distancing of god from creation enabled its claim of ownership of the planet.

In addition, it created the concept of sin as a means of control, utilizing guilt against people to keep them compliant and ignorant.

The author gives a highly accurate summation of how people are addicted to the body chemistry of recycled emotions. They are confined by the propensity to think linearly and sequentially and the general entrapment of a mind lost in consumerism and socio-religious programming.

Those of the bloodline worked toward triumph over the personality in order to become an enlightened being. In addition, the author claims they performed specific rituals which utilised menstruum and female ejaculate which further enhanced their transcendent abilities. He insists that this practice maintains their state of being but its effectiveness is only felt by those of this specific DNA.



This is a fascinating book which draws from a wealth of ancient knowledge and was source material for some of Laurence Gardner's books.
Nicholas de Vere states that his race can evolve and reach enlightenment by virtue of their DNA and their traditional rituals. He claims that those not born into this DNA cannot evolve and thus he assumes that his tradition is the only way to reach transcendence.

People who are working towards self mastery are not the product of their endocrine system; their endocrine system is a product of their mind. Mind is always first and body follows mind
Anyone who engages enough will and determination can change and evolve, especially with the help of a master teacher.

If the average human was educated with the knowledge of the author then they would have a different perspective. Considering that we utilize less than 10% of our DNA, we all have the potential for enlightenment.

3.0 out of 5 stars Tough read, but worth it for the open-minded, May 29, 2005

This review is from: The Dragon Legacy: The Secret History of an Ancient Bloodline (Paperback)

If you can go in to it with an open mind, this book can be a wonderful read. It is a book which requires a thick skin at points, and definitely a willingness to listen (if not accept) some decidedly nonorthodox views on history, religion, sex, and other ideas. The reader who can go in to it with the right state of mind, though, could learn some interesting things. That said, in places the text is difficult. There is a lot of repetition and it isn't always easy to follow the author's thread, especially with the numerous names and linkages between them. This is a book which requires patience.

I'm not sure what to say to help you decide if this book is for you or not. For me, the answer is NOT! At first glance, The Dragon Legacy appears as a book of non-fiction, but in reality it is FICTION. Being that it is fiction, I would expect some drama or adventure, something to sustain a person while they read through it. But alas, that is not the case. I also don't see what anything in this book has to do with the Holy Grail OR the Dragon Bloodlines; which are the reasons I purchased this book in the first place. I feel like I wasted my money because I didn't get any answers I was looking for.

Nicholas de Vere or Prince Nicholas de Vere as he claims is his real name, writes this story in college thesis format. On that point, it is written very well. However, this isn't a story to me.

This whole book was very disappointing for me. As I have heard stories of the dragon bloodlines since I was a little child and as an adult have been eagerly looking for evidence that relates to the stories. What I do know is that there is definately more than one blood line! Mr. Vere claims there is but one bloodline... and spends the book trying to prove that the bloodline is related to Jesus, the M Kings, the Eygptians, the Druids, the Elves, the Fairies, and of course himself... It's all just a little to off the wall for me.

Well, that's my 2 Cents... it's only my opinion, I'm the first to admit that it doesn't make me right...
