I’ve always been fascinated by ancient mysteries. Our modern civilisation has lost so much about what came before. I don’t believe the ancients had all the answers but there was surely a lot going on that we just don’t understand nowadays. It’s not that we’ve forgotten, so much as our collective memories have been erased. My book The Mandaean Revelation explains how.

Our origins may have been written in the stars, but what of our destiny? From the remote fastness of Algeria’s Tassili n’Ajjer to the Black Madonna of Monserrat and the tombs of ancient Egypt, I’m on a mission to discover and learn what the past can tell us. The answers will appear in a book or a film at some point.
