This is a very interesting book and a bit eerie. It seems "Out-worldly" to lose technical equipment such as airplanes in a perfectly clear sky, especially when that's not what the pilots report seeing. Ships that disappear within hailing distance of the safe shores is also spooky. The book is really worth taking the time to read and get into. The photographs also are a great help.

After reading this book I can see why Quasar's research in another field has inspired a Congressional resolution. This is more than a book on missing ships and planes; it is a biography of the entire phenomenon, both the enigma, the reality of missing ships and planes and the often strange (though some mind-stretching) theories that many have put forward and that have become intimately linked with the topic.

Quasar has written as a biographer would. He never mentions himself nor ever uses the first person pronoun referring to himself. The subject is the Bermuda Triangle in all its reality, potential and mystique. Despite his own personal views, he does a commendable and objective job to present the evidence for such popular theories as Atlantis and UFOs. That may be one of the weak or strong points in the book, however you wish to view it: he is incredibly objective despite his own views. It is obvious, however, by the arrangment of the final chapters that he ends with those theories that temper the most far-fetched.

Into the Bermuda Triangle is really an absorbing read. When the only attacks that can be levied against a book can be found in amateur reviews on Amazon you know the author's work, especially on a fringe subject, really defends itself. But it really gripes me to see reviews such as one of them on here that is outright false. Quasar never refers to himself as an expert; his father had the lease on a county airfied and from 8 years old Quasar learned how to taxi small aircraft. He is very familiar with avionics. There is only a short reference to Larry Kusche's old book (anybody referencing a 35 year old book as definitive hasn't done any research); Quasar and Bruce Gernon are the only ones investigating the Bermuda Triangle; and since this book has been out for almost 6 years, one reviewer here clearly had not been waiting for it since his review is rather recent.

Quasar's website once had a cyber stalker, Bubba the Salty Dog, who claimed he investigated the Triangle and disproved it all. Quasar exposed his work as nothing but excerpts from Kusche's old book. Down went the debunking website quickly.

This is truly THE Bermuda Triangle book by the actual man who has spent near 20 years really investigating it. The rewards have shown for all to see in public and press honors.

Gian Quasar's book is the best new book on the Triangle mystery since the 1970's.The book is well documented and updated with more recent vanishings and weird happenings! It is a pleasant read,with a fresh perspective on the subject and some new theories.
Mr.Quasar has researched this subject for many years.He isn't just an armchair adventurer.He has visited the places of the vanishings.He has literally sailed and flown the same paths of those who have vanished. Like a detective,Mr.Quasar will continue to investigate until he solves the mystery. I have read this book cover to cover several times since i purchased it.Very enjoyable. Can't wait until the movie !!

Has some really good information and it's a good way to get some facts on the subject. Overall, it's not expensive at all and it ships pretty fast. I recommend it if you have a school project or essay to write, it pretty much gives you enough facts and understanding of the subject to get started.

The first five chapters are well-written and researched. As long as the author is talking about the Bermuda Triangle, he makes a lot of sense. It does get a bit tedious when he's listing all the ships and planes that have disappeared over the decades, but otherwise very good.

But at chapter six till the end of the book, the author goes off the deep end by talking about quantum physics, Maya, Mars, Atlantis, etc. It's difficult to understand what he's trying to say, and how these have anything to do with the Triangle.

So if you read the book, I recommend that you read only the first five chapters and skip the rest.
