Not Human History

This book was written to inform those who are of the elven line and their human cousins. It is a small piece of the history of other races of beings.So if you are looking for a book written to mesh with the human timelines, human history or human understanding of the cosmos, this isn't the book for you.

the Elven Legacy

this book is surely not for everyone... dear faerie kind, ... but for those who love faerie lore and would to know of the true history of Elven Kind, this is a great book. It is not an entirely easy read. Nor will you necessarily agree with all the author says and you may doubt some of his research. However, it is still worthwhile to examine and brings to reality a culture that most consider merely mythical or fantasy. You may need to read it with a few grains of salt, perhaps ever a salt shaker. Still for us it was a wonderful reminder that there were cultures all over the world that have been wiped out, merged and otherwise brought to a place where people wonder if they ever existed. Will this be the case with most Native American tribes some day? African tribes? It's what happened to our elven ancestors, as this book demonstrates. kyela, the silver elves [...]

excellent

Read this book. There isn't enough I can say so I'll error on the side of saying too little. This book is excellent, DeVere is masterful. Read it, you'll be glad you did.

Not my cup of tea... but well written.

I'm not quite sure what to say here. I bought this book because I thought it would compliment another book I've read about the dragon legacies. In this I thought this book was fiction and that it would be entertaining. After, getting about halfway through it, I have decided it is not the book for me. The author writes as though this is non-fiction and in my opinion is more of a historical version of the dragon history. If you're looking for FACTS then you probably want to check this out, and decide for yourself if you agree with the author. If you are looking for drama or an enticing story line then this is not the book for you. 4-stars because it is very well written. The author definately put a lot of time into this book.

Recommended reading for christians

Nicholas de Vere describes a race of beings, similar in many respects to J.R.R. Tolkien's Elves, who were priest kings and queens, ruling by virtue of their bloodline and genetics. They were educated and initiated into sacred knowledge of their origins and kept their bloodline pure by pharaonic marriage customs. He considers his race as a sub species, with different DNA to the "masses" and this predisposes them to certain attributes, facilitating access to transcendent states of mind. Living in a symbiotic relationship with nature they ruled through a hierarchical system of defined and complementary roles. He discusses the migration of his peoples from their homeland of Scythia, west into Europe. Using etymological analysis he provides fascinating evidence for the far reaching extent of Scythian influence in Europe and the UK and the source of common origin. He outlines how the christian church manufactured its religion according to whatever information best served its agenda. The fraudulent Donation of Constantine, written well after the death of Emperor Constantine, empowered the church to appoint kings, thus usurping the right to rule through blood. They systematically eliminated those of the grail dynasty, such as the Merovingians and suppressed their heritage. He also describes how the church manipulates people through its concept of primitive morality; accentuating polarities by making good synonymous with light, positive and male, and evil synonymous with dark, negative and female. Furthermore, it distanced religion from nature, branding nature as evil. The distancing of god from creation enabled its claim of ownership of the planet. In addition, it created the concept of sin as a means of control, utilizing guilt against people to keep them compliant and ignorant. The author gives a highly accurate summation of how people are addicted to the body chemistry of recycled emotions. They are confined by the propensity to think linearly and sequentially and the general entrapment of a mind lost in consumerism and socio-religious programming. Those of the bloodline worked toward triumph over the personality in order to become an enlightened being. In addition, the author claims they performed specific rituals which utilised menstruum and female ejaculate which further enhanced their transcendent abilities. He insists that this practice maintains their state of being but its effectiveness is only felt by those of this specific DNA. This is a fascinating book which draws from a wealth of ancient knowledge and was source material for some of Laurence Gardner's books. Nicholas de Vere states that his race can evolve and reach enlightenment by virtue of their DNA and their traditional rituals. He claims that those not born into this DNA cannot evolve and thus he assumes that his tradition is the only way to reach transcendence. People who are working towards self mastery are not the product of their endocrine system; their endocri

Many Hidden Treasures

What can I say? There is a lot in this book that feels like it was written to offend. Christians and Wiccans might be especially offended. But for all the bile the author pours out at various points in the book, there are some true gems of lore tucked away here. Those with eyes to see will find rich pickings between the lines of this book. If you enjoy the works of Fries, Pennick, Chumbley and Jackson, you will love this one too. If you're looking for justification for Goth clothes and a blood fixation, you'll probably love it too, for all the wrong reasons.
