5.0 out of 5 stars
Informative and disturbing., June 15, 2002
This review is from: Blindsided: Planet X Passes in 2003- Earthchanges! (Paperback)
Although published in 2001, this book has reportedly been delayed in distribution, in order to minimize its effect on the general public. The effect, if the book is accurate, would be nothing less than wholesale panic and the dissolution of society.
The author, although admittedly not a scientist, has presented a very credible and disturbing work. According to Mark Hazelwood (with some empirical support), a brown dwarf star (Planet X, or its astronomical tag 2001 KX76) has been discovered by two major observatories in 1983. This object, which is denser than earth and which has a powerful magnetic field, has an elliptical orbit which takes it from the outer to inner reaches of our solar system every 3,600 years.
According to the author, this brown dwarf (actually red in color) is causing disturbances in the orbits of many celestial bodies on the outer rings of our solar system, and is being pulled towards our sun by their mutual gravitational fields. Citing archeological and geological evidence, as well as mythology and biblical prophecies, Hazelwood presents a chilling scenario. At the current rate of travel, Planet X will pass near the earth within the next year. As the object comes closer, it will become visible to the naked eye, appearing as a "red cross" in the sky. The author makes the case that the strange weather of recent years are early manifestations of the gravitational effect on earth by 2001 KX76. At a certain distance from the earth, there will be a dramatic (and rapid) pole shift, effectively destroying much of the life on this planet. This information has been kept from the general public (it's not "global warming" or "el nino" causing the havoc); there is nothing that can be done to avert it. By denying it, those in power can squeeze every last penny from an unsuspecting public before they scurry off to their well-fortified escape facilities.
Hazelwood has written this book, he states, in order to allow people to prepare for survival, or at least to prepare mentally and spiritually for the cataclysm that will result from the object's approach.
Supported by some strong arguments, 'Blindsided' is thought provoking and will cause many anxiety. Interestingly, the book is classified as 'science', not 'New Age' or 'speculation'.
Those who read the book can independently find collaboration from many sources for much of what is presented. Buy it and read it now, and share it with others.

1.0 out of 5 stars
Complete and utter garbage, May 7, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Blindsided: Planet X Passes in 2003- Earthchanges! (Paperback)
Work of fiction that pretends to be nonfiction.
Poorly written and ineptly researched prediction that the Solar System's 10th planet will come crashing through the solar system in May 2003 (right now!!!). Even if you believe that a 10th planet exists somehwere out there, there is no evidence of any kind that said planet will be paying the earth a visit any time in the foreseable future. Book relies heavily on the fictitious alien zeta accounts.

Blindsided by Hazelwood., July 4, 2002
This review is from: Blindsided: Planet X Passes in 2003- Earthchanges! (Paperback)
Even though I never believed Hazelwood's prediction for the return of Nibiru in 2003, this book was still a bitter disappointment. Definitely not for the serious researcher. Most of the book was pieced together from the works of other authors, so save your money and go to ZetaTalk.com... obviously Hazelwood did.
