The book is based on the premise that Century 10, Quatrain 72 - "King of Terror" is a comet. The parsing of words is rammed down your throat, this interpretation cannot be wrong! The cover of the book has a badge that says "Who will survive?", the cover shows a clock with a planet earth background and a header that says "A COMET IS HURTLING TOWARD EARTH..."

Nostradamus was vauge in his prophecies, but Mr. Paulus does not think that his "interpretations can be." The whole book is based on this one most likely incorrect or unlikely scenario.

I got John Houge's The Complete Prophecies. The author gives guidlines for interpretations and challanges the reader to examine the interpretations, for that is all these are. The Quatrains are interesting and facinating.

John Hauge's book let's you explore these possibilities without telling you what to believe.

Don't buy the Paulus book, you'll be diasappointed.

I bought Nostradamus' Prophecies way back in 1971. Approximately around that same time I saw a documentary hosted by actor George Kennedy; in the coming decades more and disasters were predicted (earthquakes, fires, floods, global warming etc). I have been thinking about it every since.

Being interested in all earth matters I have watched every National Geographic documentary on meteorites and comets; about the odds that earth can be hit again, the probability that that is why the dinasaur became extinct, and about the comet that fell to earth in 1908 in Siberia.

And then, then I read Stefan Paulus' book "Nostradamus 1999" and I feel the jigsaw puzzle is completed. Paulus has interpreted the prophecies into real possibilities, based on realism and on actual facts. He knows what he is talking about.

We will be able to see the comet coming during the eclipse. The European 1999 eclipse (August 11th at 11.11 am) is to be seen in a.o. France, United Kingdom, Netherlands, Belgium and Joesoslavia (!).

I sincerely hope that Mr Paulus took the wrong prophecies and interpreted them in the wrong sequence. I would advise everyone who is interested in world politics, and who has a healthy and keen interest in what is happening to earth, to buy this book. Read it, digest it intelligently and do, or don't do whatever you feel is necessary.

Unlike other books on the prophecies, this book (i) cuts all prophecies of the past (ii) reorder the rest by real-life chronical orders; and explains his logics of the interpretations in details. Readers would certainly hope that this book's interpretations are wrong; otherwise, Western life style, as we now enjoy, will end in less than 2 months. But beware, he mixes his logical interpretations (e.g., through astrological studies and ancient naming) with his own 'predictions' -- e.g., he predicts that the destruction of NYC will not cause great deaths because the highway will allow most to leave before the horror - this prediction of his was never mentioned in Nostradamus' poems, just his own prediction or wishful thinking. Readers need to distinguish the two.

The issue is not one of belief or disbelief anymore. It is an issue of time. August 11, 1999 is less than a month away and all doubts, one way or the other will soon be put to rest. There can be no doubt of the meaning of what will occur that day....a total eclipse. In the shadow of the moon, will we see a comet in the orbital plane of earth coming at us? We shall all see very soon.

"The year 1999, the seventh month...Before and after Mars to reign happily". Well, Nostradamus already got the war part right - with the Kosovo situation. We shall see what happens in July or September for the comet . By the way, look at a picture of Osama Bin Laden from Time of late last year and consider Nostradamus' "White Turban". A great read.

I've always enjoyed reading books on Nostradamus' predictions. Especially one that said that George Bush would be reelected in 1992. But I have still found it interesting to hear the different interpretations of Nostradamus' quatrains.

However, this book was an absolute disappointment. To start with, the ideas about the destruction are not far fetched, but slightly inconsistent within themselves. I do not even remember the book clearly although I read it not too long ago. It just wasn't worth remembering.

I also think that the author should just stay away from religious points of view. For anybody who is interested in different world religions, and Islam especially, one will be able to find many mistakes. I doubt that the author has taken the time to read any books whatsoever on the Islamic faith.

Do yourself a favor and stay away from this book. There's nothing special about it.

I checked the Astronomy charts, after reading this Book, there is a solar eclipse over part of Europe, in 1999. As predicted by Nostradamus in the 15th Century. During this Eclipse "The" Great King of Terror is discovered. This Meteor/Asteroid will impact the s.atlantic ocean, with such force, that it will cause Ejecta from the ocean floor to reach Space, knocking out our satellites over a period of two years and ultimately triggering fault lines world wide. This impact will be either the seventh month July or the ninth month, Sept due to the different Calenders (Julian/Gorgarian). The recent Vatican News (three deaths inside the Vatican) do you know that Nostradamus in quantrain 77 in the first line predicts "the Antichrist quickly annihilates three (3)". These were two Murders/Suicide. Now if the Antichrist was behind this, it would be deemed as three murders, on the doorstep of civilizations faith. Buy this BOOK It is the best done YET, The only Man who has taken (the confusing) Revelations and correlates some of the events with Nostradamu's Visions. You will like this Book, it will make you think!!!!!

it's a bit of a relief to know that the comet and WWIII have not yet arrived, but we have had a number of ominous events -- 9/11, the tsunami in the Pacific, the rise of Islam. This book has much about Mahdi, the Islamic messiah mentioned in today's news coming out of Iran. Interesting.

I surely hope Nostradamus's perdicitons don't come true, at least in my or my children's life time. We will all see if they indeed come true around Sept. 28, 1998.

This author has managed to merge history, religion and prophecy into an understandable text. Any student of prophecy would do well to read this well researched book. It matters not what religion or race one heralds. This book provides rather remarkable detail about future events, hence how to prepare for 1999 and beyond. Don't let your personal bias color your attitude about prophecy so well researched.
