Everywhere they went in the New World, missionaries, trappers, colonizers and conquistadores encountered strange stories of bearded, white visitor who came in ancient times-long before Columbus-and brought a higher civilization with him. So remarkable was this visitor and his advanced civilization that natives built huge monuments and great structures in his honor, and many worshiped him as a God. His symbol, the feathered serpent, appeared in ceremonies, paintings, carvings and architecture which can still be seen at various site throughout the Americas. Carefully researched and documented but writeen for the layman as well as the scholar, this exciting book will lead readers along the fascinating path of discovery, insight and deduction as it attempts to slove the most baffling riddle ever produced by the ancient Americas-the identity of its mysterious beareded white visitor.

In the Time of the Feathered Serpent is the third book in an exciting trilogy that combines anthropology with murder and suspense. Set in modern day Mexico, it follows the story begun in Xibalba: In Search of the Lost Mayan Texts and Gospel of the Feathered Serpent. When 2000-year-old scrolls, containing the lost gospel of St. Thomas, are discovered in the jungles of southern Mexico they ignite a frenzied competition. Corrupt government agents, an archeologist looking for the next great discovery, narco-traffickers, Zapatista rebels, a Mayan holy man and a messianic priest all rush to get possession of the scrolls. The pontiff has arranged to leave his entourage for two days on the final leg of his journey in southern Chiapas State. Pope Lucas hopes that a shaman and archaeologist will lead him to a former Catholic priest, a 'Holy Man', who performs miracles among the Indians and who has in his possession a 'Holy Cup' recovered from a Mayan burial box. This ancient coffin also contained seven papyrus scrolls from the 1st Century and an uncorrupted body of an even older 'Holy Man', believed by many in the Vatican to be the apostle St. Thomas. When a Papal Inquisitor dispatched to investigate the body and books loses his life, the pontiff feels compelled to recover Christianity's greatest treasures.

The story begins when a semi retired anthropologist, Professor Henry Williams, is drawn into an intriguing and unbelievable trail of fascinating clues. He receives a mysterious parcel from a dubious collector of antiquities, containing a papyrus from Egypt with an incredible story to tell. The papyrus is merely bait for a far more important document, one so important that the collector of antiquities will only deliver himself. A Mayan Codex so rare, that most Mesoamerican academics could never know of its existence. Telling of mankind's distant past The Codex, rewrites all history and defies belief. A document shaking the very foundations of civilisation as we know it. Defying scientific theory in all disciplines and forcing all major religions to be rethought, should the Codex come to light. It tells of the tale of a creature known as Typhon, and his influence on mankind's past. Williams, and his colleague, Dr Piers Anderson, follow clues across two continents and are shadowed by a sinister society called The League of Horus, a group so suspicious and desperate to stop the academics from discovering the truth at all costs. They travel to Egypt, to the ancient city of Akhetaten, home of the infamous Heretic King Akhenaten, Beneath the ruins of the once proud desert city, Williams and Anderson discover a vast cavern that shouldn't be there. Here, they find clues that point them in the direction of Central America and they meet a mysterious woman by the name of Samantha Marshall. In Mexico, they find that their lives are always threatened and on each discovery the journey becomes more hazardous. They befriend a professor of Mayan studies, Iago del Vigo and though sceptical at first, Iago soon understands that he will have to relearn everything. Nevertheless, he and his brother Carlos, help the two Englishmen along the way. Famous places that they travel to include Chichen Itza, Palenque and Teotihuacan, each with their own hidden secrets and dangers. Along the way they encounter Don Pedro Vacharo and the sacred Crystal Skull which takes them back to a time of legend and myth. To Atlantis.
