I have to say i was a little disappointed with this book, i knew the work of Jordan Maxwell from some interviews i saw in Project Kamelot site, also some Conferences.
The book brings nothing new... and it seems the autor is payed by page, because he repeats the same thoughts again and again and again.
Also i saw no arguments to defend or prove some of his theories, like a statement of "Believe me, because i Know."

Great pamphlet, i suspect from reading, you'll learn a lot that you didn't know. I certainly did, at the very least make thinks clearer. Jordan Maxwell describes himself as an ordinary man in pursuit of extraordinary knowledge. Jordan grew up around family discussions on secret societies, subversive movements and the politics behind religion, where his mother's uncle worked in the Vatican, secretary of state office. This lead him to study the history of religion, symbols and emblems of the occult. You'll learn where important words are derived from and discover there hidden meaning. I'd recommend this to any fellow truth seeker.

Great information packed into a short ninety-eight page read! Jordan Maxwell reveals how secret socities are the real power behind the throne in the ancient world and the governments of today. Christians beware! Maxwell discloses that it was the Freemasonic Order that was responsible for Christianity, that there were 15 prior religions that all told the same story, and that Christianity is nothing more than sun/astrological worship.

Of all the tyrannies that affect mankind, tyranny in religion is the worst. Every other species of tyranny is limited to the world we live in, but religion attempts to strive beyond the grave and seeks to pursue us into eternity - Thomas Paine

Amazing book, short but compact, a great overview of the power structure in government, politics, banks and corporations and where symbols come from - Egypt. The stories and characters from the Bible go back to ancient Egypt, like the Holy Trinity, sun and moon worship, the hours in a day and Zodiac signs, the role of astrology in religion. I read the book in two nights, it's a great way to whet your appetite for more research into the subject.

Excellent information on how our system works and where we fit in, which is just a number on the NYSE.

[Alex Frame · Rating 4 out of 5]

Much of what Jordan talks about in his podcasts and various interviews is here.
The ancient symbols seen in buildings, company logos, flags and currency all stemming from ancient Egypt and the secret societies behind the symbols that are the power ruling the world today .
This book is 21 years old yet totally relevant in the time of Covid as we see the control kicking into a higher gear through the media and politics except this time the power is coming from big pharma.
Maxwell tells us to stop drinking, eating junk and watching mindless entertainment. Start reading relevant books about these secret societies,their history and why they exist and look behind the symbolism what it it represents and wake up.
Many of us do this but sadly most never will.
Best we can do is survive with this knowledge and free from slavery as Maxwell does to this day.

[Leticia Mooney · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is pretty much a bunch of information that Maxwell has talked about in lectures over the years. My greatest disappointment is the lack of references, for further exploration and validation. But otherwise a pretty good read, even if the two interviews largely repeated the foregoin

Fascinating expose of The New World Order

This book reveals a lot about the occult origins of the real power
behind the powers that be. Every citizen of the world sh
ould read this book

[Jane Tennyson · Rating 3 out of 5]

Interesting

This book would have been more valid if even one hypothesis was backed up with a real name. If these secret societies are so evident to these forward thinking researchers, tell us who they are.

[Tim · Rating 4 out of 5]

A super fast read and a great intro into the mysteries. This is beginner reading, but the author has far, far more to share in his other works.

[Salvador Treviño · Rating 4 out of 5]

While I do love the informative nature of this book, it seems between this and other of his works, Jordan Maxwell has the tendency to be repetitive.

[Paolo Benvenutto · Rating 2 out of 5]

Enredado y redundante, es como si alguien tratara de convencerte con pocos argumentos y repitiera y repitiera lo poco y nada que tiene...

Jordan Maxwell has been at the forefront of exposing the "hidden masters" for decades. My his rest in peace, died March of 2022.

Hard to refute the information packed in this 98 page book.

Thought provoking

Thought provoking with a ring of truth to it. You have to stretch your mind a bit from your normal thinking but he connects the dots well!

[Bruce Chambers · Rating 3 out of 5]

The information was good but it skips all over the place.

[Meek Etowah · Rating 4 out of 5]

Who Rules the World

We're in a world surrounded by fast moving symbols and images, and so no one takes the time to explore the history of these and see what they mean.
Very powerful and intelligent people are at work behind the scenes governing both the Democratic and Republican Parties. In point of fact, it doesn't matter who is made president, the power is always going to be in the hands of the people behind the scenes. That's why in America we have a right to elect. We love to talk about our right to elect, but we don't have the right to select - that is decided upon by those who are in power.

[Gerrit G. · Rating 3 out of 5]

Interesting take on the intersection of theology/religion and politics, in other words: secret societies and fraternities.

[Robert Hearn · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wake up!

Very interesting reading. Has opened a whole new level to my understanding. Thank you Mr Jordan Maxwell for joining the dots.

[Dina · Rating 5 out of 5]

Very good book. We are all basically dumb sheep who keep birthing slaves to be sheared.

[Ifeoma · Rating 2 out of 5]

This book started off wonderfully, having really good points about ridding oneself of fear and retaining the ability to think for oneself and then started rambling off into rubbish. I had to drop it because of the nonsensical twists and turns that had no validity except in carefully crafted words with no historical truth to them except to inform us the readers of some deep and dark "truths" to everyday living. I won't recommend this book to be read though it started off with good premise.
