Great introduction to an interesting theory.
I have always been inclined to conclude that there is very little probability that the pyramids where constructed by slaves using only copper balls and chisels. I’m a little late to party, but this book provided me with a great introduction to why perhaps my lack of faith in current Egyptology wasn’t so silly after all. I did find the beginning a little slow going and too much of a personal narrative, however appreciate that was a good way to structure the book.

I enjoyed the ideas that were put forth, the evidence was convincing. Wish we had more access to Antarctica.
I recommend this to people with open minds.

I love Graham Hancock with all my heart.
This book was my first introduction to his work and I still cherish the original copy bought some seventeen years ago. Now I decided to re-visit my old friend just to check how do I feel about it and guess what, the magic still works - I am right next to him, flying above The Nazca plateau, visiting Machu Picchu, Lake Titicaca, ancient pyramids, Tiahuanaco, you name it. Even if reality I might not go further than supermarket, trough Hancock I feel as I am world explorer facing Kukulkan, Quetzalcoatl and Tezcatilpoca.

Very interesting narrative. I really want to stress out on one thing: original sources used as references in the book are are really worth checking out too.

Interesting read
Depending on your bent, this is all hooey or it is scary....or more likely, i think, in the middle. All in all an interesting read.

I like the questions that Hancock poses, but I think he is swinging for a home run when he had a solid chance of getting a double.
