About the author
Joseph P. Farrell is an American author known for a long-running series of books on alternative history, ancient technology, and financial conspiracy, most published by Adventures Unlimited Press and Feral House. He holds a doctorate in patristics, the study of early Christian writers, and brings that background into books like Thrice Great Hermetica and the Janus Age, which traces Hermetic ideas through medieval and Renaissance finance and politics. His Babylon's Banksters and its sequel Financial Vipers of Venice argue for a continuous, hidden history of banking practices running from ancient Mesopotamia through Venice, while The Third Way examines postwar claims about a surviving "Nazi International." The Demon in the Ekur revisits his earlier Giza Death Star material on the Great Pyramid. Farrell writes for readers of revisionist and fringe history drawn to sweeping, cross-disciplinary theories connecting ancient religion, physics, and finance, rather than for an academic audience.
