The Order of the Nephilim

by Simon Treselyan

"Imagine 'The Da Vinci Code' melded with the Bourne Trilogy and then put it on steroids. THAT is The Order of the Nephilim!" Hush Hush Biz magazine. Sean Lincoln, an ex intelligence agent turned investigative reporter is approached by the beautiful Sarah Scott, a woman with a mysterious past and a story so incredible that if true will not only alter the perception of human history, but the course of humanity's future. Uncovering the greatest conspiracy ever known, they must survive and overcome a network so evil, so ancient and powerful that none dare challenge it. In a heart-stopping race against time, they align with the Knights Templar in a frantic bid to expose a Dark Cabal that would seek to enslave the world. From Washington DC, to London and the enigmatic Holy Loch, through Tibet, Denver, Area 51 and the secret bases of the Antarctic where the final battle for the spirit and freedom of humankind will be fought. With a lightning pace and incredible concept, "The Order of the Nephilim" will have you questioning everything you ever thought that you knew and learning much about that which others would wish you didn't know at all. The 'Order' is coming for you... are you ready?

The editing on the book was ridiculously poor, I counted 5 errors throughout the book - capital letters after commas, the use of 'want' instead of 'what' and 'will' instead of 'we'll' etc. That aside, I found the plot actually pretty good, it was the execution that let it down. It felt like this book was written for profit and not by passion, it felt kind of forced. I also found it hard to imagine the places clearly and tended to get some of the characters mixed up - that might have been because I wasn't that into it...

I've heard about most of the conspiracy theories in this book and the author did a fair job on how he wove them into a story. However, he doesn't understand the Bible very well and some of his assumptions (or his facts), were a little hard to swallow, in my opinion.

The book was full of sentence fragmentation and needed an editor. Also the first letter of the first word (after the quotation), of every chapter was missing. The story also didn't flow very well and the characters really didn't really draw me in. The author seemed to want to take every conspiracy theory out there and try to throw it all into one story. But it was ok enough for me to give it 3 stars.

I'm glad I got it for free, because I'd be asking for a refund otherwise! The lack of editing and horrible formatting make this extremely hard to read. I felt like I couldn't really immerse myself in the story because of the issues! As I got further into the book, there were quite a few sentences I had to read a few times to make out what the author meant, they weren't very clear at all! The story was ok, but I never really felt connected to the characters because of the problems I mentioned. I'll pass on other books by this author.

This book takes many real life events and weaves them into a conspiracy book on the level of The DaVinci Code. This book could be a major book if it were allowed to hit the mainstream. It is well written and engaging.

This is a good book with some very interesting ideas. The author found a way to connect all of the worl's religions which was very intriguing.
