Summary: MANY PARTS ARE TRUE
Review: The author has skillfully blended information from MANY sources into a mystical, mythical novel which very much reflects the subject he seeks to demonstrate. It is not always easy for the spirit world to reflect perfectly into the physical. Akhunaton and Daniel Stewart are stepping out there and doing what they know to do.

Summary: Egyptians "black"?????
Review: They ruled Nubia. The Nubians only ruled in Egypt after the 6th century, B.C. At this time they had a viable form of worship with god kings, et al, which made it compatable (copied from Egypt)and a stronger military which easily overcame the corrupted Pharonic system. Those who believe the Egyptians were black have that racist afro-centrism from that once good college CCNY.

Summary: Book from the bottom of the trash can.
Review: This book is one of the dumbest pieces of garbage that I ever tried to read. The writing is wooden. The characters are wooden and stereotyped. And, please, the basic premise of extraterrestrial intervention/inference in ancient Egypt is not only unbelievable but very improbable. The drawings are technically good, but their subject matter is ridiculous.I think that the traditional history of Egypt, as presented by archaeologists, is basically true and the way things actually happened.

Summary: IT WAS VERY INFORMATIVE.
Review: This book was very descriptive and informative. I have to say that I saw nothing wrong in their labeling of the "people of color" as the person stated below. IT IS A WELL KNOWN FACT...that Egypt was not completely black because of the Near Eastern influnces and migrations of such people. Not to mention those times when Egypt was invaded and controlled by the Assyrians, Persians, and the Hykos. Yes the black people were influential in Egypt,some were pharoahs, great leaders and an important part of the Egyptian population. But not everyone in Egypt was black. There were many dynasties led by those that were not black which can be seen in various paintings and sculptures where there is definately NOT negroid features. Obviously, it is not only the Caucasian race that is excluding well known facts about Egypt. Egypt was a place of mixture.

Summary: One must be objective and pure to truly appreciate this book
Review: Wonderful, very, very close to the truth. Do not be defensive ... I remember this moment and it brought back a lot of memories for me. Wonderfully hopeful and inspiringly accurate, although some inaccuracies about the US are contained therewith. A book for our children, a true hero's tale. Watch for a movie in the next 10 years.

Summary: Akhenaten (Amenhotep IV) was not a "neat guy"!
Review: Yet another book filled with an inaccurate rose-tinted view of Akhenaten and his rule. Akhenaten was very much a human, not an alien. Akhenaten was a political manipulator, ambitious and wanted to defy his father on every front. Hence the Amarna Heresy that was definitely NOT a breakthrough in religion for the people. Akhenaten appointed himself as the sole intermediary between the Divine and those whom he ruled - more akin to the absolutism of a Pope during the Inquisition, rather than an Extraterrestrial Messiah. Perhaps someday, Mr. Stewart will actually read history and not the newagy gobbeldy gook that is remincient of a very bad plot of a Scooby Doo mystery.
