It was an extraordinary battle for the mind, heart, and soul of all people – the battle between the Apostle Peter, the Roman Emperor Nero, and the heretical sorcerer Simon Magus – THE MAN WHO COULD FLY! Here in this book is how it all played out.
Who can forget the scene in the epic movie "The Silver Chalice" (Warner Bros. 1954) where Simon Magus (played by Jack Palance) egotistically climbs up the steps inside the tower after refusing to wear the magic cloak, despite the protests of his girlfriend Helena – and then majestically jumps off from the very top, believing himself to be a god, in front of Emperor Nero and all of Rome – and then plummets to the ground ignominiously?
Well, here is the backstory – what really happened!
