About this listen

The Nazis and the Supernatural is a gripping account of the magical thinking that dominated Nazi beliefs leading up to and including the Second World War.

This book explores the Nazi obsession with the occult and symbols of arcane power, shedding new light on the most hated political movement in history, and revealing how occultism not only helped the Nazis but also hindered them, as opposition movements utilized its techniques. Particularly intriguing sections include the Vril Society, the New Teutonic Knights, Black Camelot, the Nazi "Occult Bureau", Atlantis and Aryan science.

A brief, but touching the more important facts, on how the Nazi regime based part of its ideology and policies on magical thinking and occultism to such a disastrous consequences.

While not going to full detail of all the aspects of Nazi occult thinking, it provides a good overview of the most relevant influences that the belief in pseudoscience and recreated mythologies had over the top echelon of the Nazi regime. Is a good introduction to the theme.

The narration is good, with a good emphasis on the pronunciation of German words. I enjoy listening in 1.2x speed, but in this case speeding up might not be to everyone’s liking as the regular narration speed already has a good fluency.

Interesting overview of magical thinking in the 3rd Reich
