I liked Deception's Point unique setting.




For The Da Vinci Code the most happening part was The secrets of the Grail that are connected, according to the novel, to Leonardo da Vinci's work -• Leonardo was a member of the Priory of Sion and knew the secret of the Grail. The secret is in fact revealed in The Last Supper, in which no actual chalice is present at the table. The figure seated next to Christ is not a man, but a woman, his wife Mary Magdalene. Most reproductions of the work are from a later alteration that obscured her obvious female characteristics.• The androgyny of the Mona Lisa reflects the sacred union of male and female implied in the holy union of Jesus and Mary Magdalene. Such parity between the cosmic forces of masculine and feminine has long been a deep threat to the established power of the Church. The name Mona Lisa is actually an anagram for "Amon L'Isa", referring to the father and mother gods of Ancient Egyptian religion (namely Amun and Isis).

--“My own beliefs should not concern you. What should concern you is that this prophecy of a coming enlightenment is echoed in virtually every faith & philosophical tradition on earth. Hindus call it the Krita Age, astrologers call it the Age of Aquarius, the Jews describe the coming of the Messiah, theosophist call it the New Age, cosmologists call it Harmonic Convergence & predict the actual date” ---December 21, 2012—
In Mayan Math—predicting that the year 2012 would mark the end of the world.


Where When NASA discovers a very dense meteorite, in it are insect fossils very similar to but not the same as species on Earth.Fantastic novel. I believe that we’ll never come across with an experience like this ………..on Earth.It’s a shocking scientific discovery, a conspiracy staggering brilliance, a thriller unlike any I’ve ever read.
