Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book invites the reader on a journey into mystery and wonder. It pursues the great questions that have always troubled humanity: what came before us? What is the history we are unaware of? How did the flourishing civilisations of the past rise and then suddenly disappear? What are the hidden messages that our ancestors left us? This journey will touch on 52 locations, some of which are remote or inaccessible, rich in history and charm. Some host enigmatic presences such as the gigantic prehistoric remains of the English countryside; the underwater ruins off the coast of Japan; the inexplicable Nazca lines in the Peruvian desert; the timeless faces of Easter Island's Moai; the real Count Dracula's castle; and the deep waters of Loch Ness in Scotland that may be home to a prehistoric creature. The author's engaging and comprehensive text, which reflects the time he has devoted to researching the most fascinating mysteries of history, science and archaeology, will guide the reader on a quest to discover the characters, signs and ruins that paint a picture of a planet that is filled with puzzles waiting to be resolved. AUTHOR: Giulio Di Martino has written for Voyager, the successful television program broadcast on Italy's Rai2, since 2003. He has travelled all over the world, producing documentaries about the most fascinating mysteries of history, science and archaeology. One of these, Easter Island, was also published as a book. He also writes film scripts, TV dramas, and articles for the most popular science magazines. 52 colour photos

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dan Brown Enigma is an insightful look into the world of Dan Brown that will not only enthral and entertain, but will unlock the secrets of one of the world's most exciting and enigmatic writers. Dan Brown is already one of the bestselling authors that the world has ever seen.Due to the success of his gripping novels Digital Fortress, Deception Point, Angels and Demons, The Da Vinci Code and The Lost Symbol, he has become a household name. But how did he achieve this? What's his secret? This in-depth biography reveals how, with a heady mix of science, religion, fact and fiction, he has captured the public's imagination and secured his place in the history of the popular thriller. Despite his enormous success, Dan Brown is an unassuming man. This book includes a look at his early years -- long before the fame and fortune that came with the success of The Da Vinci Code -- when he was a musician, teacher and writer of humour titles. It also examines the crucial role that his wife, Blythe Brown, plays in his life and work. His skilful storytelling, with its intricate, twisting plotlines, is certainly something that sets him apart from other thriller writers. The Dan Brown Enigma also looks at his extraordinary attention to detail and reveals how important research is to each of his books. Through hours and hours of careful study, he brings to light ancient rites and rituals that are buried deep within our collective subconscious. This combination of Brown's imagination with the secret truths, myths and legends from a variety of ancient institutions -- including the Freemasons and the Catholic Church -- are perhaps why his novels are so successful...and, at times, controversial.
