The amazing Projekt Saucer books are the most fascinating story ever writen about flying saucers. The whole story consist in five books : Book 1 INCEPTION (1991), Book 2 PHOENIX (1995), Book 3 GENESIS (1980), Book 4 MILLENIUM (1995), Book 5 RESURRECTION (1999). Just like George Lucas, Harbinson wrote Eposide 3 first, in 1980, and then the others. If you want to read just one book, read this one, GENESIS. Those books are quite hard to find, but they are all available on website. These five books, representing about 3000 pages written over 20 years are a must-read foranyone interested in flying saucers.

Good read. The characters are believable and the pace is excellent. Don't neglect the research that's added after the ending. Harbison details something called Projekt Fuerball, that I'd like to hear our UFO researchers say more about.
Just where did he get his info, anyway?

The author has constructed an almost plausible tale about the terrestrial origins of UFOs. It is centered around the incredible American genius, John Wilson, who is Leonardo, Goddard, Von Braun, Machiavelli, and even more. It brings a new perspective to the fields of UFOology and post-WW2 history. There is, however, one obscure, but well documented fact the author did not use. The computer was invented in Nazi Germany by one Konrad Zuse and this did not interest the military one bit. Were the Germans generals less astute than their American counterparts or did they have a much better computer? And would such a computer have allowed them to solve the mysteries of gravity & inertia? So also read the autobiography of Zuse (available in English) and think about it. This, Mr. Harbinson, might give you material for a third volume in the "Genesis" series, nicht wahr?
