Summary: Second to the Bible !! A must read for all Christians!!!
Review: This book takes hard questions about Alien Abductions, Fallen Angels and Interdimisional Time travel and explain them in easy to understand layman terms. Well researched and written. Not for the faint of heart.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Spare us!!!
Review: This book can be summed up by the first four words that appear on page 329-"Based upon the assumption..." So, basically this book is a study on Christian presumptuousness! As a born-again Christian I was most disturbed by the "Factors which can make a person vulverable to demonic activity" section which is also on page 329. Basically it includes about everyone in the world and just in case you've led an exemplary christian lifestyle, it goes on to state that-"any form of idolatry in the family background within the PREVIOUS FOUR GENERATIONS "makes you a prime candidate for being a potential contactee!! Well, I guess that covers the sins of just about everyone in the world and also the sins of a bunch of dead relatives you never knew! How very convenient. The "Actions to take upon an encounter" section made me laugh out loud-especially the first point-"Reject any invitations, deny any requests, and flee any involvement." Obviously Mr. Missler and Mr. Eastman have never been abducted or contacted(no doubt due to their sinless Christian lifestyles that go back four sinless generations!) If I sound ticked it's because this book is yet another Christian me-too book that teaches that if something weird or unexplainable happens to you then it is somehow your fault. By the way, the idea that aliens may be demons was first theorized in about 1974 by Jacques Vallee( a non-christian), which incidently Missler and Eastman seem fond of paraphrasing(see their bibliograghy.) Christians, do yourself a big favor and read anything by Jacques Vallee(the leading authority) and make your own informed, intelligent assumption.

Summary: The second finest book for understanding the New Age !
Review: First, let me state that I actually did read this book. The first nine chapters are a whirlwind of science facts and UFO reports for the benefit of the reader who has not followed the advance of science, the UFO scene or the New Age movement. The last five chapters are an impeccable weave of Biblical fact and the most probable interpretation of current events. I personally had thought of this theory before reading the book and was delighted to find two authors putting the ideas together in a mere 344 pages. Chuck and Mark make it too easy for even the laziest questioner. We can't all be crazy! I know the three of us are not the only ones to understand these things. As for the people blasting this book all I can ask is 'What are you afraid of?' There is NO way to shoot down this presentation. You choose one way or the other, but you can't fault this research. There are 396 citations in the Bibliography and Notes section. About the mention of George Adamski... George is mentioned on ONE page and simply to comment that he is someone who claims extraterrestrial contact. George Van Tassel gets TWO mentions in order to comment on channeled messages. Period. It's a comparative study, folks! Both sides are detailed in order to find the one that offers true understanding. No matter what side you take, I say know your enemy. That way you can honestly defend or defect. Now get to it. Don't you want to be able to even understand what it is you believe?

Summary: A thought-provoking look at UFO's as Interdimentional beings
Review: As we usher in a new millenium, Chuck Missler's thought-provoking look at UFO's as interdimentional phenomenon (vs. extraterrestrial beings) makes much more sense than one might expect. Suddenly, the "end times" as depicted in the Bible ring frightenenly familiar with much of what is beginning to transpire around the globe. His logic weaves together ancient mysteries, new age opinion, current X-file-type happenings, and Biblical prophecy into one rich, marvelous tapestry. How close are we to the Apocalypse? To the Rapture? After reading Alien Encounters, you may change your beliefs. I was spell-bound from page one. Read this book!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: This book was about the Anatomy of Science Fiction.
Review: The book was a time killer, the vocabulay was at a high levle and the author had put a lot of sence into it. The book was a great sucess and you should read it too. The book talkled about genre and other aliens. Space travle and space aliens. The authors that have written many science ficition books have created a enviorment in which you can explore the deep space. I liked and disliked this book. I liked this book because it had a meaning of science fiction and the author had a great finish. The disliking parts were the- high tone of vocabulary and the usage of it. The other reason is that the author had a bad start, telling about other books and their authors. Well if yiu are a great reader I would read this book. But my standerds on vocabulary are simple. Grown ups should read this book along with elders. Try it out you could learn something............

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Buy This Book, I bought 2 and gave one to a friend
Review: I have been interested in this subject for years and I have read a number of books on the subject. I found it to be a well compiled, thought provoking review of factual information. It not only discussed UFO's & alien abduction, but looked at new age thinking and biblical end time scenerios. If someone is really searching for 'real truth', they may have to search beyond their own comfort zone, my bible says to "prove all things". I think that Missler and Eastman have done a comendable job in trying to make sence of a very confusing subject, that may dramatically affect all of us, very soon. I have studied Missler's material for over 20 years and highly recommend this book.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: A non christian point of view.
Review: The authors really had me going for a while. They lured me in and then put the clamps down on me. I thought the book in all was very well written but from a point of view that there is no such thing as a god, I would have to say they are trying to "recruit" you into the christian way of thinking. If the book wouldn't of been so one sided in the last 3-4 chapters then I may have stomached it better, but....all I can say is, if your into the bible then go ahead and get it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Book
Review: This is one of the best books I have ever read. As with all Missler material, he does his home work. He also gives an explanation of where the material being used can be obtained. This type of information is great for those of us who like to follow up on our own. I loved the book and can not wait until his next one comes out. He has not yet failed to bring quality information to the table, that is both educational and entertaining.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A less than credible narrative
Review: Mr. Missler and Mr. Eastmen have made a common mistake that a number of Christian authors make in regard to UFO sightings: taking everything on face value without careful research. As a Christian I believe that end time events will be terrible and will involve the whole world. I will also concede that UFO and UFO related deceptions may occur. But I try to be careful and not allow false reports and outright hoaxes to become part of my belief system. This book presents a very interesting analysis of the potential for UFO related events being part of the end time deception of the human race prior to the second coming of Jesus Christ. This may well be a very distinct possibility. The authors arguments however loose a considerable amount of credibilty when they include any testimony from George Adamski or George Van Tassel. In the 1950's George Adamski went around the country telling of his journeys around the solar system in a spaceship from Venus. He described conditions on Venus as being much like the tropical areas of Earth. This was believed possible with the understanding of what Venus was like in 1950. We now know that Venus is not capable of sustaining any type of life as we know it so Mr Adamski could never have walked around on the surface. Mr Adamski was also caught faking an 8mm movie depicting one of his flying saucers with bore a remarkable resemblance to a Sears and Roebuck company chicken brooder. I can recommend the book for a home library because it does contain some very valid observations about the gullibility of current American culture stemming from a lack of spiritual roots.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Finally the truth
Review: Everybody knows that parts of the Bible have been hidden by the Illuminati and that Jesus arrived on a space ship, but there is a media conspiracy not to talk about it. Read this book and get the real story.
You will learn some very interesting things about Roswell, too.
God Bless.
