I recently finished my copy of 2012 Official Countdown and I have to say that I'm pretty impressed. If you want to learn more about the prophecies leading to a 2012 end of the world, you should seriously consider getting it.

I've been interested in the Mayan prophecies about 2012 for several years, so I've read many books, websites, and articles about the topic. So far, none of them has been as comprehensive as 2012 Official Countdown. Mr. Sayer and his team took their time in researching the idea of the end times from many angles.

Do you know the date of the end of the world? December 21, 2012 is the end of the Mayan calendar and so many people believe that this is going to be the end of the world. Other people say that it's just hogwash. But the thing is, it's not just the Mayans that predicted this date. Others have come up with similar end times dates. And even more cultures have end times prophecies that can easily be interpreted to be the present times.

This is an exciting time period to be living in. Is it really the end times? Will the world end in just a few years? And what does that mean for us? Are we talking about destruction from nature? From man? Or simply, as some believe, an evolution of consciousness bringing about "the end of the world as we know it"?

No one has all of the answers, but the 2012 Official Countdown book looks into many of the different prophecies about the end of the world, creating a comprehensive look at the subject.

Of course, you'll also get a healthy dose of paranoia and conspiracy theory, but who doesn't expect that in a book about the end of the world?
