Malachi Martin Windswept House (1996) Vatican Satanic Ritual
Now with new and improved female computer voice
Windswept House describes a satanic ritual - the enthronement of Lucifer - taking place at
Saint-Paul's Chapel inside Vatican City, on June 29, 1963. The book gives a scary depiction of high
ranking churchmen, cardinals, archbishops and prelatees of the Roman curia, taking oaths signed with
their own blood, plotting to destroy the Church from within. It tells the story of an international
organized attempt by these Vatican insiders and secular internationalists to force a pope of the
Catholic Church to abdicate, so that a successor may be chosen that will fundamentally change
orthodox faith and establish a New World Order.
The author of Vatican (1986), among others, returns with a mammoth meditation on the troubled state
of today's Catholic Church. So troubled, as one of the characters reports to the slavic Pope who is
the central figure here, that it's going down. In his opening scenes, surprising for this measured
writer, Martin portrays an animal sacrifice straight out of Stephen King, and Lucifer's plan is
unveiled: to penetrate the Church hierarchy and eventually the Holy See itself with corrupt priests.
They are bent on merging with economic and ethical universalists in the public arena, but their true
agenda is the ascension of Satan and the annihilation of humankind. A young American priest,
Christian Gladstone, from a place of peace called Windswept House, attempts to reverse these trends
in his audiences with the slavic Pope; his twin brother, a lawyer, is embroiled in the impending new
world order. They are light and dark, but, curiously, the slavic Pope is gray. He as much as anyone
stood against Stalinist forces in Eastern Europe, but at a cost to the private message of faith and
redemption the Church always has symbolized. But, while he himself has secularized the Church, his
personal faith is deeply traditional. He seeks a revelation from an aged nun who participated in the
Marian manifestation at Fatima. Can she tell this weary old man when Jesus will return? Does he have
the strength for one last battle, as Lucifer stands poised to become Pope? Slowly, indeed, Martin's
passions--and his agony over the dire straits of his faith--build into a deeply felt moral crisis.
Martin is a close associate with Pope John XXIII, and his knowledge of Vatican politics is
extraordinary. He pauses just short of the Apocalypse, but should find readers among Catholics and
many evangelicals. Too slow-moving, and too specialized, for everyone else.
A Black Mass in the Vatican in 1963 gets Malachi's first novel since Vatican (1985) off to a wicked
start. A potentially gripping conflict between two American brothers - one a priest, one a lawyer,
both heirs to a fortune and to the family manse of Windswept House follows. But as Martin, a former
Jesuit and veteran Church commentator, develops his complex plot, he begins to dwell to a fault upon
the themes he's explored in numerous books, most recently The Keys of This Blood, 1991. Martin's
concern is what he sees as the erosion of the Church's moral authority, both from within and
without. Here, a Slavic pope who's obviously John Paul II is being maneuvered into approving the
Resignation Protocol, which, if enacted, will force him to resign in the name of Church unity.
Martin attributes this erosion to a global conspiracy among world powers both East and West, fueled
by Satanic influence and by the failure of John XXIII to act upon the Third Prophecy of the Fatima
Letter in 1960. The narrative is richly detailed with Church lore, but the sermonizing is incessant,
with dialogue often sounding more like editorial commentary than speech. Many think of the current
pope as theologically conservative, but Martin, through one of the brothers who have been caught up
in the struggle, takes him roundly to task: "You have abandoned your seminarians to heretical
teachers... your nuns to a destroying wave of secularizing feminists," and so on. What could have
been a smart and shocking thriller winds up instead as an onslaught of ecclesiastical facts and
religious opinions occasionally interrupted by plot. The wind that blows through this rambling shack
of a novel is, ultimately, angry and hot.
