In this book, I tried to do some comprehensive research on the giants of the deep. I hope you find this interesting.

The Nazi fascination with the occult is legendary, yet today it is often dismissed as Himmler's personal obsession or wildly overstated for its novelty. Preposterous though it was, however, supernatural thinking was inextricable from the Nazi project.
