    Have many people read this? Its look into the supression of paganism by the catholic church is an eye-opener... If it's accurate anyway.

    I don't want to presume anything by typing synopsis etc, I'd probably ruin it for people... But what did ye think?

    Merry Meet Feawen. I have not read that one yet but I am currently reading a similiar novel about the Knights Templar which is along the lines of the Da Vinci Code. It is facinating. =)

    I have read it but I didn't like it much. I think I would have liked it more if it hadn't been built up to be this amazing book.

    I've been wanting to get Rule By Secrecy for a long time, as it's about covert(if that's the word) organisations such as knights templar even before I became involved with wicca etc, due to broken sword!... But now I'd like to read it more than ever.

    I read the Da Vinci code in two days. I'm usually slow to begin, not knowing whether I'll like it, but I got into it straight away, and flew through it! It gives history that I wasn't aware of to paganism and christian church. Mad stuff.

    I didn't really know about it. Just my friend said "You'd like this" and I had introduced her to some books, so when travelling I decided to take up on it. Ah.. I'm easily entertained I guess.

    Its a nice adventure based historical fiction. Pretty much the same thing as what ol' Indiana Jones was doing, along with an Alex Jones-conspiracy nutjob twist. but then again, I guess what the collective western reading public needs is adventure, seeing how this routine book blew up in popularity.

    I read and let me tell you I LOVED IT! My best friend is a pagan and I to a large extent have embraced Pagan concepts. DVC only reinforced these changes
