Synopsis

In 1801 a member of Napoleon's famous expedition to Egypt discovered in a royal tomb near Thebes, under a mummy's armpit, a long roll of papyrus covered in beautifully painted hieroglyphics - hieroglyphics said to relate to the Oracles themselves. Intrigued, Napoleon ordered immediate translation; the result was set to change his life, for he never made a decision without consulting it. Napoleon's Book of Fate is a straightforward and absorbing form of divination. From a list of 32 questions, you choose the one most closely resembling your own dilemma. Then you allow your subconscious to focus on an answer, offered by one of the 32 Oracles, by a simple process almost literally plugging numbers out of the air - there are a possible 1024 alternatives, all in one small book! The original work was purported to have been dictated by Hermes Trismegistus, the Thrice Great of philosophers, priests and Kings. Such was his genius that the answers given parents must reverence today as they must have done thousands of years ago. With this English version, we can all now benefit from the Book of Faith and be able to regulate our future according to the councils of the Oracles. --- from book's back cover
