New Releases by Graham Hancock

The Master Game is a rollercoaster intellectual journey through the back streets and rat runs of history to uncover the traces in architecture and monuments of a secret religion that has shaped the world. Pivotal historical events and processes, not least the Renaissance, the birth of scientific rationalism, and the French and American revolutions, are radically reevaluated in the light of new investigative evidence presented in The Master Game. Even the belief that the United States has a "global mission," so obvious today, may ultimately prove to be less the result of a shortterm reaction to terrorism than the inevitable working out of a covert plan originally set in motion almost two thousand years ago. The Master Game refers to a scheme or "game" played on the world stage to bring about a world order governed by a lofty goal which, today, we term the "Masonic Ideal." The Master Game traces the origins of this game of symbols and words and talismans from ancient Egypt all the way to modern times, and places it squarely on the elitist Scottish Rite Freemasonry, headquartered in Washington, DC, and ruled by a secretive and powerful brotherhood of men who have attained the thirtythird degree. The Master Game exposes this world order''s true purpose and, more importantly, shows how it has affected the United States of America and badly backfired on 9/11. The book is adapted and expanded from the authors'' earlier, outofprint book Talisman.

FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHORS OF FINGERPRINTS OF THE GODS AND THE ORION MYSTERY ''An exciting book . . . deservedly a bestseller'' SPECTATOR ___________________________________________ In Keeper of Genesis, Graham Hancock and Robert Bauval present a tour de force of historical and scientific detective work: · When and where did history begin? · When was the genesis of civilisation in Egypt? · How and why were the Great Sphinx and the three pyramids of Giza designed to serve as parts of an immense three-dimensional model of the sky of ''First Time''? · What is contained in the rectangular chamber that seismic surveys have located in the bedrock far below the paws of the sphinx? · What lies behind the mysterious doors recently discovered at the end of a previously unexplored shaft inside the Great Pyramid? · Does mankind have a rendezvous with destiny - a rendezvous not in the future, but in the distant past - at a precise place and time? Using sophisticated computer simulations of the ancient skies to crack the millennial code that the monuments transcribe, Bauval and Hancock set out a startling new theory of the Pyramid Texts and other archaic Egyptian scriptures. ___________________________________________ ''Reads like a detective story, with the reader enthusiastically trying to outguess the writers'' Literary Review ''Start the book in the early evening and continue uninterrupted till you complete it in the small house.

Los Angeles, terzo millennio della nostra era: Leoni, un’adolescente ribelle finisce in overdose e sperimenta un’esperienza di premorte. La sua anima viene catapultata in una realtà parallela collocata nel passato di 24.000 anni fa. Qui il suo destino si lega indissolubilmente a quello di Ria, una giovane donna dell’Età della Pietra nel pieno della sua battaglia contro i feroci Illimani, un popolo guidato da Sulpa, il potente demone deciso a distruggere l’umanità. Mentre i guerrieri condotti da Ria stanno per soccombere all’impeto del nemico spietato, Sulpa muove i suoi passi verso lo scopo finale: manifestarsi fisicamente nel ventunesimo secolo per condannare l’umanità alla schiavitù perenne. L’ora è ormai vicina e ogni speranza sembra perduta. Ma forse non del tutto se Leoni e Ria, come è scritto nel loro destino, riusciranno a unirsi al di fuori del flusso del tempo e, avventurandosi oltre i confini del conoscibile, a combattere la loro grande battaglia finale...

"[A] solid, fast-moving, metaphysical time-travel tale." —Library Journal Graham Hancock has spent decades researching and writing some of the most ambitious and successful nonfiction investigations into ancient civilizations and wisdom. Entangled uses all of Hancock''s skills and knowledge to propel a fantasy adventure like nothing else preceding it. Entangled is a timeslip novel alternating between present day California, Brazil, and prehistoric Spain, with two teenage female protagonists who must come together to avert an incredibly bloodthirsty takeover of the human race. It is the story of an unrelentingly evil master magician named Sulpa who is on the loose and determined to destroy humanity. Leoni, a troubled teen from modern day Los Angeles, and Ria, a young woman who lives in Stone Age Spain, meet in a parallel dimension outside the flow of time to stop Sulpa''s spectacular, deadly materialization of the modern world. Originally written as the first of trilogy that never came to be, Entangled can be enjoyed by fans of parallel dimensions and imaginary worlds and will have resonate with readers of Philip Pullman, Stephen King, Neil Gaiman, and Kate Mosse, among others. Entangled has the added merit of being grounded in solid anthropological and scientific research. Hancock calls on his years of research into cutting edge issues, including the "Neanderthal Enigma," the nature of consciousness, the many worlds interpretation of quantum physics, parallel realms, time travel, and near death and out-of-body experiences.

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • Two Egypt experts posit a revolutionary theory: The Sphinx and other great Egyptian monuments are older than common history books tell us and are arranged in such a way as to send us a message from the silent past. Graham Hancock is featured in Ancient Apocalypse, a Netflix original docuseries Guardian of the ancient mysteries, the keeper of secrets . . . For thousands of years the Great Sphinx of Egypt has gazed toward the east, its eyes focused on eternity, reading a message in the stars that mankind has long forgotten. And today as our civilization stands poised at the end of a great cycle, it is a message that beckons insistently to be understood. All the clues are in place. Geology and archeo-astronomy have already indicated that the lion-bodied Sphinx may be vastly older than Egyptologists currently believe, dating not from 2500 B.C., but from 10,500 B.C.—the beginning of the astrological Age of Leo. And we now know that the three pyramids of Giza, standing on high ground half a mile to the west of the Sphinx, are in fact a precise map of the three stars of Orion’s belt, formed in fifteen million tons of solid stone. Are these monuments trying to tell us something? And, if so, what? In The Message of the Sphinx, Robert Bauval and Graham Hancock present a tour de force of historical and scientific detective work that unravels the millennial code embodied in these structures. Using sophisticated computer simulations of ancient skies, they unravel the riddle of the Sphinx, and they present a startling new theory concerning the enigmatic Pyramid Texts and other archaic Egyptian scriptures. Their discoveries lead the authors to this question: Does mankind have a rendezvous with destiny—a rendezvous not in the future, but in the distant past, at a precise place and time? The secrets can be kept no longer. The Message of the Sphinx brings them to light.

Publisher’s Note: A new, expanded edition has replaced this book under the new title Visionary: The Mysterious Origins of Human Consciousness, ISBN 9781637480069 This definitive edition includes a new Introduction by Graham Hancock as well as restored chapters that were omitted from the original paperback release. Less than fifty thousand years ago mankind had no art, no religion, no sophisticated symbolism, no innovative thinking. Then, in a dramatic and electrifying change, described by scientists as "the greatest riddle in human history," all the skills and qualities that we value most highly in ourselves appeared already fully formed, as though bestowed on us by hidden powers. In Supernatural Graham Hancock sets out to investigate this mysterious "beforeandafter moment" and to discover the truth about the influences that gave birth to the modern human mind. His quest takes him on a detective journey from the stunningly beautiful painted caves of prehistoric France, Spain, and Italy to rock shelters in the mountains of South Africa, where he finds extraordinary Stone Age art. He uncovers clues that lead him to the depths of the Amazon rainforest to drink the powerful hallucinogen Ayahuasca with shamans, whose paintings contain images of "supernatural beings" identical to the animalhuman hybrids depicted in prehistoric caves. Hallucinogens such as mescaline also produce visionary encounters with exactly the same beings. Scientists at the cutting edge of consciousness research have begun to consider the possibility that such hallucinations may be real perceptions of other "dimensions." Could the "supernaturals" first depicted in the painted caves be the ancient teachers of mankind? Could it be that human evolution is not just the "meaningless" process that Darwin identified, but something more purposive and intelligent that we have barely begun to understand?

Talisman is a roller-coaster intellectual journey through the back streets and rat runs of history to uncover the traces in architecture and monuments of a secret religion that has shaped the world. The story takes us from Heliopolis to Luxor, Alexandria, Toulouse, Florence, Rome, Paris, London, Washington DC, New York, and finally to the global pandemonium following 9/11/2001. It is a tale filled with romance and intrigue, heroism and faith, peopled by ancient Egyptian astronomer priests, Christian Gnostics, Hermetic sages, learned Jews, Arab savants, Occitan Counts, Cathar ''perfecti'', Knights Templar, Renaissance magi, Rosicrucian ''invisibles'', Bavarian Illuminati and Freemasons. An amazing new quest.

As we recover the truth about prehistory, and discover the real meaning of ancient myths and monuments, it becomes apparent that a warning has been handed down to us, a warning of terrible cataclysm that afflicts the Earth in great cycles at irregular intervals of time. A cataclysm that may be about to recur.

Mars est sans aucun doute la planète du système solaire qui a exercé le plus de fascination sur les hommes. Loin de dissiper le mystère, les clichés pris par les dernières missions spatiales ont en effet fait apparaître son histoire tourmentée : Mars est une planète " assassinée ", coupée en deux par une gigantesque faille, pourvue d''un hémisphère dépecé, et d''un autre marqué par de nets cratères d''impacts. Sans parler des reliefs de la plaine de Cydonia, dont l''origine naturelle est fortement contestée, et au sein desquels se détache le célèbre " visage " tourné vers le ciel... Le mystère de Mars, c''est celui d''une vie dont nul aujourd''hui ne peut dire si elle a totalement disparu. En revanche, de multiples observations permettent d''affirmer qu''elle a existé, sans doute jusqu''à une période assez récente, comme l''eau dont elle est issue. Certains indices laisseraient même supposer que Mars a jadis abrité une civilisation dont les témoignages architecturaux constituent une sorte de message destiné aux humains. La Terre est-elle menacée d''une catastrophe similaire à celle qu''a connue Mars ? L''étude du système solaire laisse justement penser que la chute d''une comète est plus imminente qu''on le croit... Faut-il ignorer ce danger potentiel ? Mars détient-elle la clé qui nous permettra d''échapper à un cataclysme ? Riche en données scientifiques et en informations inédites, Le Mystère de Mars ouvre de nouvelles hypothèses vertigineuses quant à notre connaissance de la " planète rouge ".

Le Grand Sphinx de Guizeh cherche-t-il à délivrer aux hommes un message depuis longtemps oublié ? Grâce à une simulation informatique de la carte du ciel des temps anciens, Robert Bauval a brisé le code astronomique caché dans l''alignement des trois pyramides de Guizeh : elles forment une image précise de la position des étoiles du Baudrier d''Orion en... 10500 avant J.-C. Or cette révélation va à l''encontre des théories admises par les égyptologues orthodoxes quant à la conception de ces monuments. Robert Bauval et Graham Hancock posent alors des questions troublantes : d''où viennent les marques d''érosion sur le Grand Sphinx ? Quelles preuves a-t-on que ces monuments ont bien été conçus par les pharaons, alors qu''ils exigent des compétences techniques qui les dépassaient ? Que cache la mystérieuse porte tout récemment découverte dans un conduit abandonné de la Grande Pyramide ? Si l''on se réfère aux textes des Anciens relatifs au " Premier Temps " de la civilisation égyptienne, selon lesquels une caste de " gardiens " apporta la connaissance à l''humanité, à faut alors envisager une toute nouvelle hypothèse : le sphinx et les pyramides dessineraient une véritable " carte du trésor " qui devrait nous révéler les secrets des origines...
