Sinister Forces-The Nine: A Grimoire of American Political Witchcraft (Sinister Forces)

Editorial Review:

The roots of coincidence and conspiracy in American politics, crime, and culture are examined in this book, exposing new connections between religion, political conspiracy, and occultism. Readers are taken from ancient American civilization and the mysterious mound builder culture to the Salem witch trials, the birth of Mormonism during a ritual of ceremonial magic by Joseph Smith, Jr., and Operations Paperclip and Bluebird. Not a work of speculative history, this exposé is founded on primary source material and historical documents. Fascinating details are revealed, including the bizarre world of "wandering bishops" who appear throughout the Kennedy assassinations; a CIA mind control program run amok in the United States and Canada; a famous American spiritual leader who had ties to Lee Harvey Oswald in the weeks and months leading up to the assassination of President Kennedy; and the "Manson secret."

Sinister Forces:

This was a very interesting book but jumped around without connecting points too much. The major points seemed to be tied together at later points in the book and were rather loose. I have studied the shadow government since 1965 so it was very easy for me to understand and connect everything but I would not recommend it for a first time reader of this subject. Overall I very much enjoyed the book and I am now reading the author's other book.

Excellent Series:

While I admit that I agree with the previous comment, this three volume set is a real page-turner. I bought these books based on the comments I read at Amazon.com and I haven't been able to put them down. By the end of this week, I will have finished all three volumes in less than two weeks.
The author does ramble at times, and, through at least the first 900 pages of the set, fails to tie everything together. However, he creates ample food for thought, particularly for those who fear that a shadow... more info

Well Done; and Important:

I have Amazon's recommendation system to thank for introducing me to the important work of Peter Levenda. Certainly, I would not have sought out this work otherwise. But, I am grateful that I did. Well done, Amazon!
This book is well written, thoroughly documented, and important. The rather bizarre foreward by Jim Hougan contributes nothing at all to the corpus of the book and can be left unread with no context or meaning being lost. Once Levenda does get going in this book, it is relentlessly... more info

Pretty Good:

I'm kind of new to the occult genre (due to being relatively skeptical), but I heard a couple of interviews of Peter Levenda and was intrigued so I bought the book. Well researched stuff; presented in a conversational manner, which was entertaining for non-fiction. The facts that can be nailed down are, and cooincidences and synchronicities are identified as such leaving the reader to draw the conclusions. Overall, a fun non-fiction read, with an end note section at the end of each chapter that provides a... more info
