This was an exiting read. As I read the story it was as if I was part of the quest. Loved it.

The material is fascinating I just wish the author included much more detail! Still a great read.

DNF!
I can't say I'm surprised at how daft this book is considering I read the blurb.

It's nonsense, of course, but it's so entertainingly sincere (and, aside from some mild trespass, basically harmless) that I find it fun to read as fiction. Full review: https://fakegeekboy.wordpress.com/201...

This was one of the most interesting, hair-raising and adventurous paranormal stories I have read. Has history, mystery and suspense and losts of ghostly phenomenon and cultish secret society sorts of clues.
I was originally recommended this book by a metaphysical mystical sort of bookseller back around 1982 who was interested in such phenomenon and this was his immediate recommendation as a read.

I tend to think of Dan Brown's Da Vinci code as a parrellel with a mix of Ghostbusters and Sherlock Holmes. How is that for a whacky anaology!

Will keep you wondering for sure.

I absolutely loved this book. I wish I could have been their and had been one of the chosen ones for this quest. This quest was amazing, scary and it also taught them alot about history. Unfortunately the ones who assigned the quest kept their identity secret and I wish I knew who "they" were.

Having reread this book as my publishing company have recently released the 40th anniversary revised edition, I can say it's stood the test of time since it was first released in 1983. A page-turning supernatural adventure. Where's the TV series? It would make such a good show.

niektóre opowiadania świetne, inne średnie, jeszcze inne słabe. Ale ciekawy wybór - od końca XIX wieku do końca XX wieku.

I'm sure I must have heard of this before 2021 but when I stumbled across a mention of the story in a BUFORA journal I couldn't remember it at all. The best thing to do seemed to be to start right back at the beginning - and it's easy to see why it had the impact it did. The book is very well put together, mostly keeping the balance of detailed information versus keeping the narrative moving about right.

It didn't give me 'the creeps' in the way some of its contemporaries do, e.g. Clive Harold's 'The Uninvited', but I still found it a page turner and am already on the lookout for the sequel.

My new favourite writer!

As always, Graham Phillips gives us another page-turner!! I've been reading this alongside Strange Fate, and there is some overlap. Looking forward to carrying on with that book now.

Well worth a read for a wonderful story that just happened to be true.

Great to see how a few of the team have carried on there good work.
