Format: Paperback
This is an excellent book for those with a peaked interest in the interconnection of all people and our pasts. Or in laymen terms Crystal Skulls. This book takes a very broad examination of a very expansive subject. It does explore the most common beliefs/concepts about the skull, not just popular or scientific. They really combed the world to ask the right people. From Native American shaman to top level scientists working for Hewlett Packard when they conducted scientific tests on the Mitchell-Hedges Skull in 1970.

Excellent bibliography, an excellent beginning to a quality bookcase.

The concepts contained within this book have implications for all of humanity. Definitely worth a read! Not wanting to make this fascinating subject matter appear too new agey, the authors were very careful to include exhaustive historic details and to explore every possible angle. I admit that I skimmed a couple of the longer chapters, but I was absolutely absorbed by the book as a whole. The story of the crystal skulls is absorbing and enlightening---and certainly a must-read in this era of corporate gluttony and environmental disregard. Highly recommended!

This is a gripping book full of information that reads like a novel. Covering subjects from ancient history to quantum physics there is more information in this one book than I have read in hundreds of others. Startling revelations and theories abound. Highly recommended read!

The authors of this book are engagingly innocent, and I mean of the wide-eyed variety. Admittedly, this slightly lazily written book is compelling...I'm a serious anthropologist and couldn't put it down for a good, long while. It has data, details and 1st-person accounts that seem entertaining.

It also holds some no-nonsense, straightforward warnings about humankind's erroneous ways--and I like that. However, this may be construed as a slight "rip-off" after finishing the book, so be warned. This book is full of lectures and frankly, what can one do about things that one is powerless to change? New Agers cannot have their cake and eat it too.

A bit tiresome from square one is the comparison to Indiana Jones. Just because the latest film deals with a crystal skull of sorts does not mean every crystal skull enthusiast can be compared to Indie. Want real-life Indiana Jones? Buy books about Professor Zahi Hawass of Egypt.

However, this book smacks of a lazy, dictaphone-to-manuscript slapdash work. The writers absolutely love beginning their sentences with the word "for" (gets annoying). Also, as nearly a quarter of this book seems to be extensive quotations, I find it truly odd that the people being quoted simply continue on in the style the book is written. This makes any such quotes very, very suspect. In another mode of consideration, the authors sure do want to believe in the absurd--and when you start 'believing', you stop thinking.

The authors can swallow a crystal-waving maniac speaking "super-duper-ancient Tibetan" by 'channeling' one of the skulls. Yet when a respected Smithsonian scientist proves the skulls are all fakes, the authors try to argue. Incredible. This book poses as a scholarly, semi-skeptical work.

It's a wonderful surprise when you pick up a book not knowing much about it and it turns out to be so great. That's what happened to me with this book.

Just by reading this one book you can get caught up on the entire new age movement. It touches on many of the main new age ideas.

It also offers a possible theory for the origin of our human race including the time when our dna was converted from a single strand to two strands which contain the memories of both the original earth people and the star people.

These crystal skulls, especially the original 13 that were given to humanity by beings from other planets, are exquisite and priceless works of art. But they are much more. When they have been brought back together they will become an amazing 'living library' of ancient and arcane knowledge.

These skulls can truly be called sacred objects. It is not often that a physical object can be said to possess supernatural properties.

The big question is what is going to happen on 12/21/12 when this current age ends.

Will we enter a new age of peace and wonderous knowledge ?

Or will our human race simply die out as a result of pollution, greed, and violence ? This book has been published at this time to hopefully prevent this from happening.

Only time will tell and we don't have too long to wait.

Format: Paperback
This book has a lot of fascinating stories in it about the crystal skulls and what there significance might be. The authors take the approach of explaining them scientifically and then move on to explaining them by American Indian spirituals beliefs that include the tribes in North, South, and Central America. They found the scientific viewpoint lacking in its ability to explain them. The crystal skulls are closely linked to Indian culture, although it is said that other crystal skulls exist in such places as Tibet.

In this book mysticism trumps science and you might say that Indian mysticism trumps the white man's science because the book is also a critique of the white man's ways--his science, his civilization, his economy. The Indian mystics are particularly chagrined that the environment is damaging mother earth by extracting her resources out of her. There may come a day when we realize that we cannot eat money once all the resources have been tapped. Civilization should not be divided among class, religious, and racial lines; we are all one and share a common heritage which originates from the stars such as Sirius, Pleiades, and Orion. Everyone is equal, so there should be no class structure. The physicists are now just finding out what the Indians already knew, that we are all interconnected. The Crystal Skulls are appearing to give us messages such as these.

Now that the time of white oppression against Indians and their culture is coming to an end, a golden age may dawn in which all people will live in harmony without fear, doubt, violence, and suspicion. Or maybe not, if we keep trying to separate ourselves from nature and from each other, it will destroy us and our planet.
