Summary: The Satanic Plot in the Vatican Against the Pope.
Comment: Traditionalist Roman Catholic Father Malachi Martin's novel _Windswept House_ takes a look into the strange world of Vatican politics and intrigue within the larger setting of the world at large. Father Malachi Martin, Roman Catholic priest, former Jesuit, exorcist, and an associate of Pope John XXIII and Cardinal Augustin Bea, presents the reader with a fictionalized account of a global conspiracy in league with Satanists and freemasonry to take control of the Roman Catholic church and to oust "the Slavic Pope" (Pope John Paul II). While this book is a work of fiction, Malachi Martin has stated that much of what is presented here is in fact based upon truth, including allegations of Satanic activity within the Vatican during the 1960s. The book consists of endless plots and counter-plots among Cardinals and prelates of the church in an effort to unseat the Slavic Pope and place a liberal, modernist pope upon the Throne of Peter in league with Satan's plan for the church. Only a small band of those who adhere to the traditional teachings of the church (with emphasis on the Tridentine mass), including two brothers from a wealthy Texas family (the Gladstone's), are able to offer resistance against the forces of evil within the church hierarchy. The book alleges conspiracy of the highest order, Satanic activity and possession within the Vatican and within the church hierarchy (especially in America), pedophilia and homosexual activity within the church and among its priests and bishops, as well as the prevelance of freemasons among the Catholic Cardinalate. While the book is written under the guise of fiction, one cannot help to see many of the current problems within the church in wide-angle focus after reading this book. Father Martin is not the first to point these problems out, and he belongs to a group of Traditionalist Catholics who look askance upon (some of) the documents of Vatican II, adhere to the Tridentine mass, and believe that current problems in the church could be resolved if the Pope were to take a stronger stance (and listen to the warnings of the Virgin Mother, especially as revealed at Fatima). The book ends with a cliffhanger and one is not sure what to make of it at the end, much as one is not sure what to make of modern day Roman Catholicism (especially in America) which has become infested with the heresy of modernism and liberalism. Much of the book consists of geopolitical intrigue (of the old-school variety), showing how a club of elite businessmen and politicians have turned towards Satan and his "humanistic" offerings in their efforts to create a New World Order. For these elite, the Roman Catholic Church represents an outmoded medieval residue; nevertheless, they believe the takeover of this institution is useful because it has so many members which can be unified. Indeed, the theme of unity plays an important part in this book, in which the chief conspirators (cardinals) call upon the ideal of "unity" to force the Slavic Pope's hand in a "Protocol of Resignation". Indeed it is these global unity schemes, which are of greatest danger to Christ and His Church today. For those individuals who feel disaffected by the modern post-Vatican II church, a book such as this may offer some guidance in trying to maintain the traditions of the church. For others who read this book, it will provide food for thought at the very least. While I believe it is wrong to leave the church (especially during a time of mass apostasy) as some in the more narrow reaches of "traditionalism" or the extremist position of "sedevacantism" have decided to do, we must be wary of those developments which have taken place within the church and among its hierarchy which are directly opposed to its traditional teaching. The book leaves one with a question, and the question is how is one to remain true to the teachings of the church within the modern world and given the influences of the modern world on the church itself. Of course, in the book, not even the pope is capable of making such a decision (at least not easily).
Father Malachi Martin (who will be sorely missed among traditionalists) recently died as he was working on another book about the Vatican and the New World Order. While his books should be read with caution (and perhaps some skepticism), they offer the ready a unique look into the mind of a traditionalist Catholic living in the modern world.

Summary: Malachi Martin's Faction: Who really Won the Cold War?
Comment: Windswept is a perfect sequel to Malachi Martin's book, The Keys of This Bood. Any American who is puzzled about the recent turn of events in the Clinton Matter needs to purchase both the Keys of This Blood . . . and Windswept House. Malachi Martin has opened the door to critical thought. For those who ascribe to New Testament gospel teachings, Christ's warning, "Know them by their fruit," takes on a modern day, ominous meaning.
Windswept House focuses on the Catholic Church. The mighty Vatican has been rendered impotent by infiltrators who embark on a spying venture as well as a search and destroy mission. In the process, they successfully isolate and denigrate opponents. In some cases, the shadow of assasination lurks as a termination tool.
Father Martin witnessed the opening salvo of the One World group as they attacked the Catholic Church hierarchs. In short, he was a fact witness. His work of "Faction", Windswept House, is acknowedged to be at least 85-90% fact presented in fictional form. It appears that world-wide Godless Socialism and Nihilism are winning the race for world dominion.
Reading this book is like watching a tidal wave as it heads our way, devouring all life in its path. There is no doubt as to who will be the coming victims - it is us. Those who believe that we won the Cold War, and have chosen to replace dogmatically held beliefs with situational ethics, should read both Windswept House and the Keys of This Blood.

Summary: A MUST Read
