Quite a book. We learn from it that Hitler, while at the flophouse in Vienna for 4 some years, was a daily visitor to the Hofbibliothek in Vienna where he would spend hours reading Nietzsche, Hegel, Schopenhauer, Wagner. This would tell us Hitler ws not the empty minded lunatic historians paint him to have been. A lunatic he was, but one guided by his belief that the Spear of Longinus was guiding his destiny. The tales of this Spear, how it influenced Napoleon, make for great reading for those interested in the occult and quasi-spiritual. Hitler himself sought a transcendence through this Spear, but in the end he turned out to be one demented anti-Christian individual who would have been better off had some art schools in Vienna in the 1910-1915 period had allowed him to be a student. The book is well written, not ponderous, and worth a time out of one's day to read.

Ever since Jesus side was punctured with a spear by Gaius Cassius while hanging on a cross, a practice to see if the victim would flow blood if so the victim was still alive and hastened his expiration, this book claims between the 4th and 5th rib however some books claim the puncture was under the rib cage creating pneumothorax thus delaying death and prolonging the victims suffering, in any event, the spear has been sought by world leaders ever since believing it to be the ultimate talisman of supernatural power, the book covers all who have tried to posses it and all who had and their results from Otto the Great,Charlemagne the Holy Roman Emperor who in circa 800 dropped the spear in battle and was killed to Napoleon and Hitler.Hitler was an interesting story how he got into drugs by way of mescaline in peyote to open his 3rd eye to read the Akashic record and that he desired Luciferic possession,the Thule society (Satanists) is covered on how Alfred Rosenberg brought them the Protocols of Zion which was a appendix to a work called The Anti-Christ supposedly from St.Matthew "He is near, he is hard by the door" (Satan),at the end of WW2 Patton held it in his hands and said "Mankind is standing on the brink of the most evil epoch in the entire history of the planet",soon after A-Bombs were dropped on the Christian cities of Japan,the spear is now in Austria and the shaft at the Vatican,this book will inspire you to read more books on the characters in this book.

I couldn't put this book down. I learned so much and it was so deeply interesting. Ultimately it is about good and evil and human spiritual striving. And I discovered what the Holy Grail really is about. A fascinating tale, well-written, highly recommended!

I didnt mentally prepare myself for a demonology book.. thats precisely what this book is- its a very informative, interesting, and heavy read. Had to take a few days off to defuse the negativity. I encourage all to read this book if you seek the intricate play by play how the hierarchies /kosmokrateras operates and executes missions.

An interesting read. I found myself double checking Wikipedia as the story is so strong it reads like fiction. But, as is often the case, truth is stranger than fiction.

This book was amazing. Paced well and intriguing. I loved how the story went back and forth between the two timelines during the beginning part of the novel. I enjoyed every minute of it and it left me wondering about the actual history surrounding the events so I wound up spending a lot of time researching and learned a few new things. I will definitely be on the lookout for other novels by this author.

In a talk I attended the speaker mentioned the "Spear" that pierced Christ at his death and the history and ledgend that accompnies it. This was my first exposure to such an interesting history. This book was very enlightening especially regarding the facination that Hitler had with the occult and the spear. The book has many German words and lots of characters that were at times difficult to assimilate. The overall information was so facinating that it was hard to put the book down. It not only covered the history of the spear but the mind set of those in the higher ranks of Germany in World War I and II and the possibily of how they have been coming back to fill a destiny from previous lives. This is not a book for those who have little knowledge of the occult as you have to realize that the implement can be for good as well as darkness.

Trevor Ravenscroft has been able to capture the true essence of occultism with the "spear of destiny" as no one else has ever done! This marvelous book is amazing and extremely well researched with fundamental theosophical facts, ancient occultism, secret knowledge, and unknown historical facts which will defiance our traditional beliefs. Highly recommended!

I have only read about 1/3 of this book. The author is himself deeply fascinated by occult, it is my understanding. All this blah blah about holy grail etc. One can read this book for entertainment but not as a serious fact book.
