Unholy Crusade Paperback – Import, January 1, 1979

by Dennis Wheatley (Author)

This... novel... is set in Mexico and recounts the adventures of 'Lucky' Adam Gordon, a young best-selling novelist who has gone to that country in search of background material for a new book, and who soon finds himself in love with the exquisitely beautiful but deeply religious Chela.

Adam's ability to go back in time enables the reader to glimpse the magnificent but barbaric civilisation of ancient Mexico, but this is only part of the story. How Adam becomes entangled with some sinister individuals who are prepared to go to almost any lengths to achieve their evil ambition, how he finds himself continually fraught with danger, caught between two powerful rival factions, and having to participate in revolting pagan rites, is described in this thrilling story by 'The Prince of Thriller-Writers'.

I went to Mexico as a result of reading this book years ago and read it again when I got back having been to all the places mentioned in the book. Best method of learning history and geography that I can think of.

Cover 3/5 I have an old paperback version.

Attracted by the book's time travel element. Writing shows its age. I read most of Dennis Wheatley's books when in my teens and twenties but cannot recall reading this one. How Adam improved his Spanish in Brazil I cannot understand. I read on ...

A classic. I first read this when I was at school in the 70's, it's as fresh now as it was then. Excellent read
