Editorial Reviews

(The Mail on Sunday)
"Excellent" "Fascinating"

(The Central Telegraph)
"Could be the most valuable book you ever read"

(Fate magazine)
"Reads like an Indiana Jones adventure tale. Seldom has a recounting of archaeological research resulted in such a fascinating, fun, but ultimately terrifying read. This well-written book entertains as it educates."


Customer Reviews

Leaves many unanswered questions 3
This book was undoubtedly a groundbreaker, as it introduced many people to the concept of crystal skulls. It is written in the style of a real life detective story, and initially approaches the subject from a scientific angle. It finishes with the authors turning to spirituality for the answers, relying heavily on the wisdom of various Native American Elders. The reader though has to wade through 500 pages before any firm conclusions are drawn. The book fails to answer the most basic questions of what the skulls represent and how they can help mankind. This leaves the reader with more questions than answers. It is also unfortunate that the authors interview only American researchers, when there is so much more that could have been said - there are many researchers and crystal skull guardians in the UK, who live and work with these fascinating objects as part of their everyday lives, the addition of this material would have added so much more to this book, as British and American researchers have completely different ideas as to what the skulls are about.

The original and best book on the subject5
Buy this wonderful book - it is the business.
Everything you ever wanted to know about the
real-life crystal skulls, and although it's
a factual book it reads just like a real-life
Indiana Jones adventure!

mystery solved?5
Totally engrossing, occaisionally frightening and well worth the read, i have read it three times. A must for anyone interested in the unexplainable. May at first be difficult to get into but make the effort and you wont be dissappointed.
