An interesting book, but flawed and incomplete. The idea that the prophecy quatrain numbers are possibly related to the year of their occurrence is nothing new: Hogue calls them index dates or some such thing. (Thus, according to this theory, quatrain 4.40 will happen in 2040.) This makes for some neat ways to interpret things, but some old "proven" quatrains don't fall into Reading's theory. Even the ones he says have already happened, such as 9/11, have quatrain numbers like 1.87 and 10.49! What is this? How does this fit his little schema? He doesn't even explain the scheme all that well, devoting maybe a paragraph to it in the introduction. His only explanation for why some (the ones that have already occurred) have funny quatrain/dates is trite: Nostradamus was scared of the Inquisition and changed them. Eh. ( )

Book description
The key to dating Nostradamus’ always intriguing and popular predications has now been discovered! Award-winning author Mario Reading finally found the long-searched-for key, and with it, has uncovered the secret connection that links the seer’s various quatrains. With this new knowledge, he can interpret these astonishing predictions in formerly unimagined ways…and give us a glimpse of what the future holds. Among the amazing finds: Nostradamus foresaw the Twin Towers disaster, the Iraq War, the devastating tsunamis, and the flooding of New Orleans. But even more, Reading’s groundbreaking translations and sharp commentary states precisely what is still to come. His sometimes extraordinary and shocking forecasts include the demise of the British Monarchy, the breakup of the European Union, and Global War.
