A good yarn based on a selective reading of outdated theories February 22, 2007 4 out of 12 found this review helpful
This is an intriguing book, but the scientific theories it is based upon were discredited decades ago. The mass extinctions and climate shifts Graham gets so much mileage out of are better and more simply explained by current models.
The comparative analysis of primitive cultures is what I found most interesting. Though perhaps this book isn't the best summary I could have chosen, since so much of it is drawn from newspaper articles of the 1960s.
It was a fun read, it just isn't science.

Fantastic book. I could not put it down! But then, what else could you expect from Graham Hancock ?
Nonsense February 14, 2007 1 out of 21 found this review helpful
These books are nonsense. Any books whose titles include any of the words 'mysterious', 'secrets', 'Templar', 'alien', 'code', 'supernatural', 'mythic', 'cosmic', are just giving away the fact that they are unscientific rubbish. They are based on wishes and dreams, but we should all know that children wish, adults decide.
Fingerprints of the Gods November 10, 2006 5 out of 8 found this review helpful
An interesting book to read for those who want to know the mysteries of the Pyramids and the Mayans achievements and many others. Reading this book makes you wonder how civilisation evolved and whether we have really captured the secects of the ancient world.
Deserves a read by adventirers and travellers to the ancient wonders of the world.
a new look at history November 3, 2006 3 out of 6 found this review helpful
Exciting new look at our past. Many questions as to man's history on this planet are discussed with facts, opinions, and intellegence.
