Immortal Hope by Claire Ashgrove Pdf

Centuries ago, Templar knights defied the archangels and unearthed the copper scroll that revealed the locations of the gates to hell. Cursed for their forbidden act, they now roam the earth, protecting mankind from evil. But darkness stalks them, and battles they fight bring them ever closer to eternal damnation. One promise remains to give them salvation—the return of the seraphs. Embittered by his purpose, Merrick du Loire must honor an ancient pact and bring peace to his cousin's soul, releasing him from the clutches of their enemy. When he stumbles upon history professor Anne MacPherson, he discovers that she possesses a sacred artifact that marks her as a seraph. Duty demands he set aside his personal quest and locate the knight she's fated to heal. As Merrick struggles with conflicting oaths, Anne arouses buried hope and sparks forbidden desire that challenges everything he's sworn to uphold. Anne has six weeks to complete her thesis on the Knights Templar. When Merrick takes her to the Templar stronghold, he presents her with all she needs—and awakens a soul-deep ache that he alone can soothe. Yet loving Merrick comes with a price. If she admits she is destined for him, her gift of foresight predicts his death. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

When the archangels send him on Sabbatical to find his faith once more, his quest leads him straight into the forbidden arms of a Benedictine Sister, whom Azazel is threatening.

But when a traffic accident forces her to accept Iain's aid, she discovers that her chosen path is not what her heart craves.

As she struggles to reconcile her desires, she stumbles into the truth about her heritage, ancient secrets, and unholy danger. Iain's immortality is all that can protect her. For Iain, it's an impossible choice. The archangels have decreed if he walks away from the Templar, they will reclaim his soul. Yet returning to the Order only guarantees his inevitable death...

Immortal Surrender by Claire Ashgrove Pdf

Farran de Clare, loyal member of the cursed Knights Templar, wants nothing to do with predestined mates. Even the Almighty won't turn him into a fool again-he'd rather sacrifice his soul. Yet in the scientist Noelle Keane, a devout atheist, Farran meets the seraph designed for him. Ordered by the archangel Gabriel to protect Noelle, the possessor of a sacred relic that could give Azazel incredible power, Farran swears to do his duty-but in name only. Fighting an attraction that grows with each day, he's determined that he'll never pledge himself to her. As they war over her future, their mutual passion ignites a conflict far more damning. But before Noelle will agree to eternity with him, she demands the ultimate sacrifice-his heart.

The Pocket A-Z of the Knights Templar by Gordon Napier Pdf

The Knights Templar were among the most famous of Christian military orders. Created after the First Crusade of 1096 and endorsed by the Catholic Church in 1129, the Order grew rapidly in membership and power. Templar knights were some of the best equipped, trained and disciplined fighting units of the Crusades. But when the Holy Land was lost and the Templars suffered crushing defeats, support for the Order faded and rumours about their secret initiation ceremony created mistrust. When the Order suddenly disappeared, disbanded by the Pope, it gave rise to speculation and legends that have kept the name ‘Templar’ alive. From Abbasids to Zion, The A–Z of the Knights Templar is an invaluable reference of the places, people and themes of the Crusades, the Knights Templar and their legacy.

The Templar Curse by Ernest Dempsey Pdf

Throughout the course of human warfare, no weapon has been as feared, as deadly, as the Ark of the Covenant. Legend claims that this mysterious, supernatural force, first carried into battle by the ancient Israelites, was so powerful that the Ark could lay waste to entire armies, entire cities in moments-thousands of years before the advent of nuclear bombs. So, when an ancient order of killers reemerges from the shadows after centuries of hiding-convinced that other secret societies took the Ark from Jerusalem to hide it in early America-international treasure hunter Sean Wyatt knows exactly what they seek and why. And that realization terrifies him. Together with his best friend and sidekick, Tommy Schultz, Sean must track down the Ark before the Order of the Assassin can. Before their order can pervert this heavenly power and wield it to enslave all of humanity. In a life-or-death fight to save both themselves and free people everywhere, Sean and Tommy must again beat the clock, this group of murderous villains, and a series of cryptic traces left by the ancients both to throw these bloodthirsty men off the trail and to save us all. In his latest Sean Wyatt thriller, USA Today best-selling author Ernest Dempsey again rips the veil from history to throw readers headlong into a hidden world of clues, secrets, and danger. Readers, hold fast to Wyatt and Schultz, or you too might be lost to the deadly Templar Curse.

The True Story of the Templars by Rocco Mela Pdf

Finally available the first complete book to know everything, but really everything, about the history of the Knights Templar. In this book we put black on white the true history of the Templars, without getting lost in legends and half-truths. The Templars were a monastic order devoted to the use of weapons to ensure the safety and freedom of the pilgrimage of Christians throughout the Promised Land, at the time of the Crusades. Not against Muslims as non-Christians, but as executioners of the pilgrims' safety. They were the saviors of Christendom for several centuries, until, out of envy and resentment, their order was disbanded. Since then, rivers of ink have been spent to besmirch the Templar order or, even if in good faith, to incense them with abstruse theories used to depict them as a kind of caste that reigns supreme in the world. Is the truth in the middle? Not really. The Templars have a great history, but from the end of the Middle Ages onwards, the order was disbanded. In other words, the Templars are part of the past, a glorious and mythical past, but there is no dietrology that can assume, in our days, their existence. In this book you will therefore find only the truth, no ramifications and assumptions based on nothing. Among other topics, the book will also talk about the Chivalric Ideal, the birth of Chivalry, the Templar Mysteries and the Infamous Trial. Plus, there will be a bonus section dedicated to another order of chivalry! ✓ Buy the book now! What are you waiting for? Don't you want to finally enjoy the history and myth of the Knights Templar?

The author offers a solution to the cryptic Shugborough inscription -- a sequence of letters (O U O S V A V V, between the letters D M) carved on the 18th-century Shepherd's Monument on the grounds of Shugborough Hall in Staffordshire, England. Above the inscription is a stone relief mirror image of Nicolas Poussin's painting of the "Shepherds of Arcadia." It has been called one of the world's top uncracked codes.

The Templars and their Sources by Karl Borchardt,Karoline Döring,Philippe Josserand,Helen J Nicholson Pdf

Even 700 years after the suppression of the Order of the Temple and the execution of the last grandmaster, Jacques de Molay, there is no shortage of publications on this influential military order. Yet unlike other medieval institutions the Templars are subject to speculative fiction and popular myth which threaten to swamp the fruits of scholarly endeavour. Fortunately, recent years have produced a thriving academic scholarship which is challenging these myths. More and more sources are currently being edited, particularly those for the trial of the Templars (1307–1312). Others are still awaiting indepth study, among them, surprisingly, the greater part of the charters that cover more than 150 years of the Order’s history. The papers in this volume step into this gap and critically evaluate new directions in Templar studies on the basis of as-yet unedited source material. Open issues and desiderata regarding the sources are discussed and from a range of inspiring results a new status quaestionis is proposed that will not only provide a better understanding of the Order’s archaeological, economical, religious, administrative and military history, but also set new points of departure for the editing of charters and administrative documents. The papers here are grouped into six sections, focusing on the headquarters of the Order, its charters, manpower and finance, religious life and finally the suppression and the Order’s afterlife.

The Templars by Jochen Burgtorf,Shlomo Lotan,Enric Mallorquí-Ruscalleda Pdf

As the oldest of the military religious orders and the one with an unexpected and dramatic downfall, the knighthood of the Templars continues to fascinate academics and students as well as the public at large. A collection of fifteen chapters accompanied by a historical introduction, The Templars: The Rise, Fall, and Legacy of a Military Religious Order recounts and analyzes this community’s rise and establishment in both the crusader states of the eastern Mediterranean and the countries of western Europe during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, reflects on the proceedings launched against it and its subsequent fall (1307–1314), and explores its medieval and post-medieval legacy, including an assessment of current research pertaining to the Templars and suggestions for future explorations. Showcasing a wide range of methodological approaches and primary source materials, this volume unites historical, art-historical, theological, archaeological, and historiographical perspectives, and it features the work and voices of scholars from various academic generations who reside in eight different countries (Israel, France, Italy, Spain, the United Kingdom, Germany, Poland, and the United States of America).
