Chariots of the Gods

De: Erich von Däniken

Narrado por: William Dufris

Erich von Däniken's Chariots of the Gods is a work of monumental importance---the first book to introduce the shocking theory that ancient Earth was visited by aliens. This world-famous best seller has withstood the test of time, inspiring countless books and films, including the author's own popular sequel, The Eye of the Sphinx. But here is where it all began---von Däniken's startling theories of our earliest encounters with alien worlds, based upon his lifelong studies of ancient ruins, lost cities, potential spaceports, and a myriad of hard scientific facts that point to extraterrestrial intervention in human history. Most incredible of all, however, is von Däniken's theory that we ourselves are the descendents of these galactic pioneers---and the archaeological discoveries that prove it:

• An alien astronaut preserved in a pyramid
• Thousand-year-old spaceflight navigation charts
• Computer astronomy from Incan and Egyptian ruins
• A map of the land beneath the ice cap of Antarctica
• A giant spaceport preserved in the Andes

Really Enjoyed, Great Book

This book gets you to think about Alien beings visiting the Earth. I really enjoyed the questions that he made throughout the book. If you keep an open mind when listening to this book, you might just believe that Alien did visit the Earth.

Very in lighting if you have an open mind.

I wanted to read this book for a long time. The subject is very interesting to me. Once srarted, I was guided through history one can see if you have on open mind. I enjoyed this book very much.

Excellent book

Excellent story and narrator. Most memorable moment was story of flood and story of Edgar Cayce.

The basis for all "ancient aliens" documentaries

still Interesting after 53 years. last few chapters show the books age. still, Interesting perspective

Great book, mediocre narrator

struggled with the guys voice, wish Erich had read it himself but other than that it was brilliant
