Surrealist SF. A ship full of time-traveling misfits arrive on Earth to find that Marduk, the home planet of the Nefilim, is entering the Earth's solar system. The Nefilim, desperately wanting their old colony back, are not about to be deterred by the conspiracies being hatched by the UN and their cronies. The humans, it turns out, feel much the same about the Nefilim. An impasse that might have been resolved fairly simply, if it weren?t for the mutant races who are sick of living underground, the imminent arrival of the photon belt, and a small-town girl who just doesn?t know when to stop...

Reader reviews,
By dminoz "David" (Victoria, Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Day of the Nefilim (Paperback)
"I have been reading SF since about 1970, when I was ten years old, having inherited a bookshelf of the greats - Heinlein, Herbert, Azimov, Bradbury, Vonnegut, etc, when my family moved in to a new house. Since then I have devoured just about everything in most of the genres that have populated the print and electronic worlds as they have matured along with the realities of hard science. I have also been a fan of conspiracy lit, be it templar, illuminati, or of the X-Files sort. In the last year, as a result of having an iphone and discovering [...], I have started consuming more and more SF from the `unknowns' and `unsigned' which have been showing up with a greater frequency, and the fact of the matter is:
The Day of The Nefilim is one of the best SF novels I have read since I began reading. Maybe that's just because all of what I have read until now provided the knowledge and context to appreciate the depth of David's work, which didn't allow me to put it down until I finished it. Straight through, in one sitting. Yeah, that's right, I did not put the book down until I finished reading it. Couldn't. Well done David. Keep writing. Can't wait to read your next book... You would make Robert Anton Wilson proud, and Douglas Adams smile." -- exiledsurfer on [...] - - - - - - - "Scanning over the reviews of this book which you have already received, I see that all the good superlatives have already been ably employed; the richness of praise so opulent and resounding that even a great big word freak like myself is hard put to say anything that would glitter for an instant in the clamoring tide. So, all I can say is that I love this book as much as I love all of my favorite science fiction books, and that's a quantity that defies quantifiers. Everything in this book is perfect. The ending is perfect; the villains are perfect; the characters and images and settings are perfect. I, too, could barely put it down. And I want to also say, thank you." -- P. Deering - - - - - - - "This was an excellent read. Elements of Moorcock, Heinlein and Barker. Deserves serious consideration for the avid SF reader. Hopefully will spawn some more installments in the story line. Also feel it has the makings of a good screenplay. Thanks for the great writing David!" -- Ron W. - - - - - - - "And just as Pig `was going to have a crap in the grass, then a roll in the mud', it finished. Great read, I hope to see more. Reminds me a lot of that Triffids book which sticks in my mind from about 40 years ago. Good read :) " -- be1952 - - - - - - -

Great Sci Fi,
By Sue Lange "Sue Lange" (New York, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Day of the Nefilim (Paperback)
Good story. Lots of nice science fiction detail: strange aliens, end of the world scenario, weird flying ships, invisibility, ugly despot. Can't get enough of this stuff. Includes a great view of a better life beyond the war zone. Looking forward to the next one. What's Alexis going to get us into now?

Highly recommended to science fiction enthusiasts,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Day of the Nefilim (Paperback)
The Day Of The Nefilim by D. L. Major is an impressively written science fiction saga that involves culture clashes between humans, underground mutant races who yearn for the surface, an alien civilization chasing after their lost home planet in Earth's solar system, and much, much more. The Day Of The Nefilim is highly recommended to science fiction enthusiasts as an engaging, mixed-up adventure of conflict, negotiation, back-stabbing, conspiracy, -- and a small-town girl who unknowingly impacts upon it all.
