Secrets of the Serpent Now Available as an Audible Book

Secrets of the Serpent: In Search of the Sacred Past is now available exclusively from audible.com as an audio book. I spent a day at Alchemy Werks studio in LA late last year and recorded the book. I drank bucket loads of a lovely lemon tea that Jo the engineer produced as if by magic and we watched the lovely Californian sun lower in the sky over the LA hills. It was a magical time for a poor author from Nottinghamshire and one that shall remain with me. This book I belive captures some of my emotion on the day in the voice! Not something I would want to do every day, nor could I, because it is very hard work and I admire the pro's who can do this for a living.

Anyway - here's the link if you are intrigued.

Ark, Shroud and Mary

With the forthcoming book and DVD - The Ark, The Shroud and Mary, I thought I'd pop some links and acknowledgments on for people to do their own research!

Firstly I'd like to acknowledge the great many people who helped me write the book and make the DVD. Graham Phillips was very kind and allowed me to use material he had found in his book The Templars and the Ark of the Covenant - thanks Graham! Gary Osborn (co-author on Serpent Grail and Shining Ones will forever be one who influenced me and opened my eyes more to the metaphysical elements of specifically the hypnagogic and his work deserves full credit (which for my fault entirely I missed in The US version of Gnosis and has been prepared for future runs - sorry again! The kundalini aspect is Gary's concept fullstop). Graham Hancock - for the marvellous work he did in The Sign and the Seal. Stuart Munro-Hay - thanks to your spirit! My Sufi friend and Brother Juan - whatever your real name may be. To Dr John Jay Harper for his further deep insights into the Shaman of our past and clarification on all things kundalini. Warren Croyle - my friend and guide in many things. Michael Bourne - for being a brick! Steve, Julie and Mike of Soul Path for creating enchanting music from the heart of the universe. The great Ian Wilson and his books on the Shroud. Crichton Miller for his insights into the ancient mind. Hamish Miller for making contact with Mother Earth! My friends at the university for helping with the electrical elements and my psychologist friend for the insight into the physical brain and mind. Astrid my wonderful editor, Michael and Laurie of New Page - consumate professionals. And to all those numerous people who have spoken kind words and helped me along the way.

Ark, Shroud and Mary

The build up to the publicity for the new Book and DVD has begun in earnest I am told by Michael (www.real2can.com) who has been doing some pre-launch work. Several BBC radio stations in the UK have booked, nettalkradio, Gnostic radio, Kala Spirit talk in the US and a major UK television production company have started talks about a broadcast documentary. All good stuff (so I'm told!). Really looking forward to the challenge of this because the book and DVD are so very different and quite at a tangent to what has previously been stated by just about everybody. I went through a lot to get this project done - including meeting up with some very secretive people in Europe who wanted to let me know a few things. I wasn't prepared for what they had to say I can tell you and it led me down a path I was simply not expecting to go.

If any press/radio etc want to get a press pack then they can email michael@real2can.com . Same goes for anybody who wants first edition prints or DVD's.
