ENGLISH
If you know anything about the history of the Knights Templar, you know that in 1307 the Templar order became persona non grata and there was a major crackdown and round up of all Templars (there's a long story here about jealousy re their amassed wealth and the pope but it's too long to go into here). One of the charges against the Templars was that they worshipped a demon called Baphomet; very untrue, as the Templars were in the service of God. Lots of Templar history out there so if you are considering reading this book, you may want to do a quick historical scan beforehand. Anyway, the author of this book uses the connection between the Templars and Baphomet to produce an alternate history in which Baphomet, an ET who falls to Earth in his ship, becomes stranded here in France in the 12th century. It so happens that there is a Templar unit nearby, and Baphomet promises its leader that if he supplies Baphomet with food, he will give the Templars technology that will help them rule a world empire. The offer is too good to refuse. So Baphomet's Meteor is the story of the ongoing connection between the Templars and Baphomet; it stretches into the future about 100 years and by then the Templars have been busy little bees conquering already-established empires to create their own. But, as you know, there's always a catch.
