More About the Author

Ian Wallace Campbell (1947 - 2011) was born in Forest Gate, London, to an English mother and Scots father. At the age of seven, he was taken to live on the south coast of England by his mother where he spent his formative years. After starting his working life as a photographer, he did a succession of menial jobs ranging from being a cab driver to running a bureau de change. He was persuaded in the mid 1980's to go back to photography as a freelance for the national press and had a successful career in journalism. He started to write at this time. His first book, "That Will Do Nicely" uses his experience in the photographic and foreign exchange businesses to give rich detail to the plot of an ingenious fraud caper. The sequel "Pentagon Five" followed two years later. In the late 1980's, Campbell became interested in the subject of Rennes-le-Chateau and co-authored "Geneset - Target Earth" with David Wood in 1994. This was followed by "Poussin's Secret" a year later. In 1997 he went back to college and the following year entered Kent University to read Astrophysics. He graduated in 2000 and attended Christchurch University College the next year where he completed a teaching degree in mathematics. He now lives on the south Kent coast and divides his time between teaching and writing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Different angle on Rennes-le-Chateau mystery, January 26, 2000

By

This review is from: Geneset : Target Earth (Hardcover)

This book is a really good read for anyone interested in Rennes-le-Chateau. For those who have read "Holy Blood, Holy Grail" by Baigent et. al., this is a totally new and different perspective on the mystery. The basic premise of "H.B., H.G." is that Jesus didn't die on the cross, but has a direct line of decendants to the present day, and relates this to the secret organization Prieur de Sion and Freemasonry. Wood and Campbell take the same information Baigent et. al. used to derive this hypothesis and, using a more mathematical approach, relate the secret of Rennes-le-Chateau not to Jesus Christ, but to a returning comet that will destroy the earth at a certain date. Worth reading!

5.0 out of 5 stars Poussin's Secret+Genesis, November 15, 2001

By 

Zoltan Szilagyi (Budapest/Hungary) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Geneset : Target Earth (Hardcover)

Dear Sir !
Congratulations !Great books !But !
I.m missing the
explanation for the content of Foquet abbé:
"...so difficult to discover that nothing now on
this earth can prove of better fortune nor be their
equel.."
Nevertheless it is questionig to me,why Posussin
informed Foquet so easily-if this is so secret ?
Furthermore I doubt about the fact,how could Poussin
undertood all these really difficult mathematics in
this century-if it makes difficulties to me as well in
2001 ?

...and what is meaning:"nothing better fortune" ???
Just the mathematic rules and ????
I.m absolutely sure there should be more than this
and I think there should be any link,how rapidly
Sauniere became rich ?!
These are currently my doubts and questions to you.
With best regards:
