The World Cataclysm in 2012: The Maya Countdown to the End of Our World

by Patrick Geryl

The end of the Mayan calendar is fast approaching. Learn what you need to know to survive the great cataclysm of 2012. In his previous book, "The Orion Prophecy", author Geryl theorises that the lost civilisation of Atlantis was destroyed by a huge cataclysm engendered by changes in sunspot activity affecting Earth's magnetic poles and atmosphere. All of this was predicted by the Mayan Calendar, translated in hindsight. Here he continues his discussion of the Mayan calendar and the fairly well-known fact that it is generally interpreted to end in 2012. He believes that the knowledge that can save the world from the cataclysm of 2012 can be excavated from The Labyrinth of ancient Egypt, a storehouse of Atlantean knowledge which is linked in prophecy to the Mayan predictions. The mathematics and astronomy of the ancient Egyptians and Mayans are related and have similar predictive power and should be taken very seriously.

Only reason I read this book is because it's now 2023. The math is wrong in it and it seems as if the author was doing an assignment for school and had to write 2000 words.

One of the worst books I've ever read!
Ok, I'm not trying to be mean, but I had so many hopes with this book because when I started to read it I was in this 2012-and the end of the world-hype. I bought this when I was traveling Costa Rica on 2010, and after 4 years I found it in a drawer. I read a few random pages and I was like hell no, not again.

It was so interesting when I started to read it, the first 50 pages were so good, and then before the half of the book, starts the big disappointment, there are just NUMBERS, CRAZY STUFF, NONSENSE PROPHECIES, MATHEMATICAL CALCULATIONS, MORE NUMBERS... PAGE AFTER PAGE AFTER PAGE OF THIS !
Today I found out that the author is remorseful of writing about everything that is on this book.
I didn't finish this book because of that. I didn't skip to the good parts because after the page 150 there are almost no words and just "random" numbers. I'm crazy about not finishing a book and reading each word in this case number (pun intended), it's kinda like an OCD in me, but I just can't.

Sorry?

Not the world is a nightmare, this book, however, is.
The argumentation is lousy, therefore the outcome too. JM
