Books by Laurence Gardner




Bloodline of the Holy Grail
The Hidden Lineage of Jesus Revealed

Book 1




Are Christ's descendants alive and among us today? A noted clergy, historian and genealogist reveals some astonishing and exciting facts about the historical Jesus, his marriage to Mary Magdalene, the Resurrection, the significance of the Holy Grail, and much more.

Genesis of The Grail Kings
The Explosive Story of Genetic Cloning and The Ancient Bloodline of Jesus

Book 2




From beneath the windswept sands of Mesopotamia comes the documented legacy of the creation chamber of the Anunnaki gods and the story of original kingship. With direct comparisons between Bible scripture and the original texts from which the Old Testament derived, a very different and highly controversial picture emerges. Here are chronicles of the Phoenix, the Philosophers' Stone and the Tables of Testimony - records which give stunning insight into the Missing Link, active longevity, the transmutation of gold, and the anti-gravitational science of the pharaohs. Adam and Eve were not the first man and woman on Earth, but they were certainly the first of a kind, and their explosive story was recorded 2,000 years before the book of Genesis was ever devised.

Realm of The Ring Lords
The Myth and Magic of the Grail Quest

Book 3




The legendary quests for the One Ring and the Holy Grail are brought together for the very first time in the same arena. From Arthurian romance to the world of J. R. R. Tolkien, these stories are enveloped within the magical lore of Elphame. However, the myths are based on no mere fantasy, but on an engaging and continual history of real events and characters in descent from the ancient Ring Lords. Dealing with numerous aspects, from Sleeping Beauty to Robin Hood and Count Dracula, Laurence Gardner reveals how a prestigious sovereign heritage has been strategically suppressed by parliamentary and church dictate, facilitated by a forged document which has controlled all monarchical and governmental practices in Western Europe for over 1,200 years.

Lost Secrets of the Sacred Ark
Amazing Revelations of the Incredible Power of God

Book 4




Laurence Gardner's credentials are impeccable, and his latest work will further enhance his reputation as the top scholar in his field. Lost Secret of the Sacred Ark came about by popular demand from readers who were intrigued by his references in previous books to such terms as shewbread, highward fire stone and even the Philosopher's Stone. Gardner has uncovered a different purpose for the Ark of the Covenant than that we have been led to believe by benighted clerics. The real use for the Ark was that of a scientific nature, a gold-laden capacitor with an "arc" able to manufacture a mysterious substance. This substance was not the transmutation of baser metal into gold but of gold being turned into a miracle medicine, with the ability also to manipulate space-time and prized above all else in antiquity. Beginning at an Egyptian temple in the Sinai Peninsula, the author takes us on a tour of ancient civilizations who so long ago practiced hyperdimensional physics that we are just now realizing. Our journey takes us from ancient temples to modern laboratories today, and we learn that temples then were not for the worship of gods but were the workshops for the gods. Gardner's writing affords us a new perspective on events in biblical times as well as an understanding of quantum mechanics. The book contains credible and impressive source citations, a comprehensive bibliography, and appendices ranging from ancient genealogies to current gold standards.

The Magdalene Legacy
The Jesus and Mary Bloodline Conspiracy

Book 5




Laurence Gardner's historical detective story on the suppressed archives of Jesus, Mary Magdalene and their hidden lineage first began in his 1996 worldwide bestseller Bloodline of the Holy Grail. Since then, these controversial themes have been taken up in the world of fiction with the bestselling novel The Da Vinci Code, triggering a new and heated debate about the mysterious life of Mary Magdalene. From the Dark Ages, through medieval times and the Renaissance era, down to the present day, Mary Magdalene has been among the most painted and sculpted of all classical figures. In fact, the oldest of all Christian paintings outside the catacombs of Rome is not of Jesus or his mother, but of Mary Magdalene. Artists and chroniclers have adored her, and churches have been consecrated to her. But for all that, she has been constantly vilified by the Christian religious establishment. In the New Testament Gospels, Mary is given as Jesus' companion, his financial sponsor, and a woman that he loved. Church doctrine, however, claims her to have been a sinful harlot, albeit a repentant sinner who was finally admitted to the sainthood as late as 1969. With over 50 colour plates, The Magdalene Legacy follows the life of Mary Magdalene as it has been portrayed in academic literature and the world of fine art. The book also investigates why so many of Mary's pictorial depictions are of non-biblical events ­ on board a ship, holding a Grail, preaching to crowds, and pregnant or with a child. From his privileged access to centuries of suppressed Templar, Vatican and monastic archives, Laurence presents documented evidence of Mary's true identity and marriage to Jesus, her connection to the Knights Templars, the inside story on the mysterious Priory of Sion, and the real relationship between the Magdalene and the Holy Grail. In these respects, we find evidence of Magdalene passages deleted from the original Gospels before they were approved for New Testament inclusion in the 4th century. Additionally, much is learned from other Gospels and texts that were omitted entirely from the canonical selection ­ accounts that specifically refer to Mary Magdalene as Jesus' consort, along with monastic references to her being his wife. The story that emerges is an explosive account of Mary's exile from Judaea under threat arrest, and the documented persecution of her heirs by a succession of Roman emperors. Why are these things not written in the Bible? Many of them are ­ they are simply not taught or discussed in a mainstream environment. The Magdalene Legacy, however, goes far beyond the controversies stirred up by the fictional world of The Da Vinci Code to reveal a dramatic series of events that rock the very foundations of hybrid 'churchianity'.

Shadow of Solomon
The Lost Secret of the Freemasons Revealed

Book 6




The Freemasons are often said to be the world’s most influential secret society and the story of this enigmatic fraternity is wrapped in mystery and intrigue. Their involvement in shaping political world events has stretched over centuries, even to the extent that Masonic principles lie beneath the establishment of the United States and its Constitution. The Brotherhood is reckoned to be the privileged guardians of certain ancient secrets, but the Masonic Constitutions state that their secrets were lost over three centuries ago. So who are the Freemasons and what is their history and purpose? Stories of the biblical King Solomon and his Jerusalem Temple reside at the heart of modern Freemasonry, but its beginnings stretch back even further in time. How are the secrets of the Ark of the Covenant and the Philosophers’ Stone related to the original Masonic tradition? What powerful role was entrusted to an elite lodge of Knights Templars that led them to become established as the Guardian Princes of the Royal Secret? What change occurred in the 17th century that caused the Brethren to burn their records for fear of explosive secrets being discovered? In The Shadow of Solomon, Laurence Gardner’s answers to these questions present a fascinating historical detective trail that leads from the most ancient records of the Fraternity to modern times. Gardner’s in-depth research exposes the conflicts and intrigues that have guarded the real secret of Freemasonry for centuries… a secret which has potentially shattering implications for what we think we might know about history and cutting-edge science. For Freemasons, Dan Brown readers, and others who might wonder what secrets lie behind the mysterious and influential fraternity, The Shadow of Solomon is the definitive insider’s account of the startling truth behind Masonic history – and the centuries-long search that the Brotherhood has undertaken to find its own lost secrets. Laurence Gardner, a past Master Mason of the United Grand Lodge of England for 20 years, opens the door on the inner sanctum of the Masonic Temple. Here, he presents the culmination of years spent in archival research, with the result that the key Lost Secrets of Freemasonry, and the elusive Lost Word that will unlock those secrets, are revealed.
