Publisher's Summary

The witnesses are legion, scattered across the world and dotted through history, people who looked up and saw something impossible lighting up the night sky. What those objects were, where they came from, and who - or what - might be inside them is the subject of fierce debate and equally fierce mockery, so that most who glimpsed them came to wish they hadn't.

Most, but not everyone.

Among those who know what they've seen and are forever changed by it are a pilot, an heiress, a journalist, and a prisoner of war. From the waning days of the 20th century's final great war to the fraught fields of Afghanistan to the otherworldly secrets hidden amid Nevada's dusty neverlands - the truth that is out there will propel each of them into a labyrinth of otherworldly technology and the competing aims of those who might seek to prevent - or harness - these beings of unfathomable power. Because, as it turns out, we are not the only ones who can invent and build and destroy.

Featuring actual events and other truths drawn from sources within the military and intelligence community, Tom DeLonge and A. J. Hartley offer a tale at once terrifying, fantastical, and perhaps all too real.

WOW!! The most amazing book on the subject yet!

I have a ridiculous collection of Ufology books, ancient mythology, and the like but this book was absolutely captivating and ties in with my already gained knowledge on the subject in a new and emotionally fascinating way. I am hooked!

Ripping Yarn

A ripping yarn woven from conspiracies "Golden Oldies". All topped off with a hilariously ernest afterword.

Astonishingly brilliant!

I was very sceptical when looking at the author Tom Delonge, given the medias portrayal of his interests in ufology and conspiracy. If you are anything like me and have had this thought, please do yourself a favour a dive headfirst into this book.
You will NOT be disappointed.
What an outstanding adventure filled with more than enough alien / ufo / black-ops military action to settle anyone's appetite.
I tip my hat to A. J. Hartley for bringing together all of Tom Delonge's knowledge and beautifully threading together a multitude of stories into a suspense-filled ending.
A well driven, grippingly intense FUN story for young and old!

The biggest downside I had, was even though this book is just shy of 18hrs long, you cannot put it down.. so those 18hrs go quick. But like those great movies of old, Tom Delonge thought ahead and has made a sequel!

Enjoy!

Brilliantly told and narrated. Highly recommend this to anyone interested in learning more about what goes on ‘behind the veil’...
