Controversial authors Picknett and Prince return to the enticing themes of Jesus and Mary Magdalene, secrets, treasures, heresy and backroom European power brokering with this look at the secret society said to guard the bloodline of Jesus and Mary Magdalene: the Priory of Sion. They argue that the Priory is a hoax, but one that is carefully designed (in the manner of misinformation leaked by intelligence agencies) to achieve specific goals. Behind the hoax, they say, is a network of European esoteric societies driven by the principle of “synarchy” and influencing the coalescence of the European Union, perhaps at the expense of democracy. Picknett and Prince argue that the Priory of Sion is neither a centuries-old society nor a complete hoax but a real group that wants to bring about a United States of Europe. Published at $16.95, our price $12.95.
