A BOOK BETTER THAN ITS COVER...!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Alien Conspiracy: Unraveling the UFO/Alien Mystery (Paperback)
This is a fine book ! Chris has orchestrated several components of the alien phenomena and put them into the bigger picture . I must say most books leave me wanting ; this book leaves me wanting his next effort too. It is a genius of letting a novice understand and a pro like me understand more. The best UFO book I've read in recent memory ... ! If you're ' looking ' for answers , then you will like this presentation . It takes a special genius for me to get to the computer and write a review, and , this book by Chris Evans is a special genius I happily recommend .The other positive reviews I see on it are echoed by me as well ... IF YOU READ ONE BOOK ON THIS SUBJECT : READ THIS ONE ! ... A researcher in Canada ...

This Book Has A Permanent Home In My Library,
By A Customer
This review is from: Alien Conspiracy: Unraveling the UFO/Alien Mystery (Paperback)
Whether you're new to Ufology and don't know where to begin, or you're a seasoned ufologist, bored with the same-o same-o, and looking for some new inspiration to propel you to the next level, this book is for you! Chris Evans has really done his homework, in a scholarly fashion - with the reader in mind - including a "Survival Guide" for understanding the book, tons of notes, and complete index w/ cross-reference. Not only has he covered the gamut of legendary, as well as obscure cases, conspiracies and cover-ups, but he delves even deeper into the tablets and scrolls of antiquity, making a strong case that, at least, some of these UFO's and their occupants may have been with us always, and how the powers-that-be have withheld that knowledge from us, in an obvious effort to manipulate and control our destiny. In addition, he brings to the front, the never before published Andrea Roberts case, which not only may present a new challenge to biological science and medicine, but will most certainly spur abduction researchers to review their own case files. I can't say for certain how long it'll take us to produce the "gun," but the odor of "smoke" is unmistakable. Finally, I thought Mr. Evans summed it up quite nicely regarding the intentional "cat-n-mouse chase" we've been dealing with for the past 50+ years, as he uncovers the official "Fruitcake Recipe" we've been force-fed for way too long. Official Disclosure may or may not be forthcoming in my lifetime, but with the "Fruitcake" ingredients identified, no matter how tempting it is, or how good it smells while baking, we can choose not to take that first bite. After 30 years in the field, and half that as a MUFON Field Investigator, I can't recommend this book highly enough. If you buy one book this year, this is the one. It's a keeper!

This Book Altered My Pre-Conceived Beliefs,
By A Customer
This review is from: Alien Conspiracy: Unraveling the UFO/Alien Mystery (Paperback)
I'm a novice when it comes to the UFO phenomenon and I was pretty sure I knew what my beliefs were concerning UFO's. Then I read Mr. Evans' book. The detailed history of UFO's, the abundance of information in his notes, and the never before published Andrea Roberts case caused me to think and rethink my previous knowledge of the phenomenon for WEEKS after I turned the final page. The final chapters containing Chris Evans' research into the tablets and scrolls of antiquity blew me away! My mind continues to be intrigued by the possibility of WHO some of these visitors are and how long they have been influencing those of us on planet earth. This is a highly informative, intellectually researched resource on the UFO phenomenon, yet is much more than most would expect. I would highly recommend this book to anyone.

I Loved It!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Alien Conspiracy: Unraveling the UFO/Alien Mystery (Paperback)
I'm not normally a book reviewer, and since my opinion of this book closely aligns with the initial three reviewers, and long-time reviewer, Dennis Hawley, who also wrote the books foreward, I wasn't going to add my 2-cents. But, after reading this lastest review from Tharpa Doyle, I feel I have to speak up. It's becoming somewhat obvious anymore that some reviews you'll find on Amazon, are written purely with the intent to trash a product or person, and I hope this wasn't the case here. This book simply does not deserve a poor review like that! "Alien Conspiracy" is a Limited Edition, Vols. 1 & 2, and nearly 300 pages. Since it clearly states on the title page, "Limited Researcher's Edition," one shouldn't expect it to be an over-night read. A researcher's edition is normally packed full of details and commentary not usually found in later editions and revisions. The author merges classic ufology, alien abduction, and the correlations of ancient writings, into one book (so it's like getting 3 books in 1), with references and cross references in the index (invaluable for researchers, and those keeping a score card). I was amazed at the volume of detail, and hard work that had to go into it! I was not the least bit disappointed with the way the author ties it all together, nor with his style of commentary, and neither were my two friends, who read it before I did, and who highly recommended it to me. I consider myself an avid reader and, like alot of people, I have read several books on UFO's and aliens over the years. I've read Vallee, Hynek, Hopkins, Jacobs, Hall, Karla Turner, Leah Hailey, Von Doniken, etc., etc., and IMO this book by Chris Evans truly deserves its rightful space with the best of them. I literally found myself rivited from beginning to end, and even after reading all of the other books prior, I learned something new. I was always suspicious of the Maury Island Affair, and now I know why. I had heard of Frank Scully but didn't know where he fit in to it all, and now I do. I was always curious of the brief references to ancient writings, and strange characters mentioned in the Bible, and now I have a better understanding of who they may have been talking about. I found the account of experiencer Andrea Roberts quite interesting too, as well as a little disturbing. How many other people like Andrea are out there? Those who may have even told their story to an abduction researcher, but it got "filed" because it didn't fit with the standard M.O. we've come to expect thanks to pop culture, and all of those near identical accounts retrieved through regressive hypnosis. When people think of alien's now, they automatically think Grey or Reptilian. But, Andrea's story is not about either one. Is that why that one reviewer below called her case suspect? Doyle called her story a filler, so he/she must not have gotten it either. Like it or not, alien's, UFO's, and the paranormal, appear to go hand in hand, and if we're ever going to get close to an answer, all of it has to be considered as a whole, which the author does quite well in this book. No, IMO this book positively does not deserve a bad review! I don't hesitate to recommend Alien Conspiracy, and I'm eagerly awaiting the next book by Chris Evans!

I would like to take this opportunity to thank those of you that have bought and supported my book, Alien Conspiracy, making it one of Amazon.com's bestsellers in the UFO/alien subject area over the last nearly two years. I have truly enjoyed hearing from those of you that have e-mailed me with questions, and, Andrea Roberts (from the abduction case in the book) has expressed her thanks and appreciation also. Although the first printing of the "Limited Researcher's Edition" has sold out, an additional small lot of this book has been reprinted to support the airing of the ABC network special featuring Peter Jennings, Feb. 24, 2005. So, this book will unlikely be available in the coming weeks.
A coming hardcover edition (The Alien Veil) is planned for around June 2005. All remaining copies of Alien Conspiracy I will sign before shipping to Amazon.com. (PS: Sorry, I tried not to rate my own book, but the entry form would not accept a `no vote.')

By "ward314159" (Salt Lake City, UT) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Alien Conspiracy: Unraveling the UFO/Alien Mystery (Paperback)
if it wasn't for chapters 8 - 10. They had little to do with any actual conspiracy and were almost entirely based on the alleged personal experiences of, it seemed, one rather suspect individual. Those chapters probably should have been the subject of another book altogether.Still it was an overall decent read despite the author's abuse of the phrase "double-entendre." He seems to be a capable researcher so I'll likely read his next one. Interestingly, the book arrived apparently signed by the author. That's a first. |
