The Gods Never Left Us

By: Erich von Däniken

Narrated by: Sean Runnette

Length: 5 hrs and 31 mins

Publisher's summary

When Chariots of the Gods was published 50 years ago, it began a worldwide change in humanity's view of the cosmos. In an era of the military space race, Erich von Daniken boldly proclaimed that Earth had been visited by more advanced beings early in our history. But prescientific man had no concept of spaceships, so he called their vehicles "chariots", and those driving the chariots became "gods".

Over the next five decades, von Daniken's 32 books built an ever-stronger case for Earth being visited by extraterrestrial visitors. And Chariots became an international best seller, with 30 million copies sold in more than two dozen languages. Also during that time, the case for ET visitations millennia ago was being reexamined by contemporary UFO researchers, who found evidence of modern visitations. And von Daniken expanded his perspective to encompass the present.

Now he presents his long-awaited sequel to Chariots of the Gods, proclaiming that the gods never left us, with all-new material to show that ancient aliens are still with us.

The Gods Never Left Us contends that recent advancements in biotechnology, astrophysics, engineering, and artificial intelligence not only give us a fresh perspective on his ancient astronaut theory but actually validates it. We are - as a race - embarking on the exact same trajectory of our own interplanetary colonization, just as von Daniken suggested Earth itself was colonized.

ETs are definitely at work today. And that affects all of us.

Didn't disappoint 👍

I like this line of research deeply. I do not know if that makes me biased in this review. Either way, good luck.🤞

Excellent Text w/ Undeniable Evidence

this book is information packed and worse listening to. to the reader, or listener in this case, is that the narrator Lacks enthusiasm for the words he is reciting. This book would have been far more entertaining and no doubt have elicited greater income for Audible had it the narrated by Stephen Bel Davies. Davies as narrated the series by zecharia sitchin and has John out of this world job at capturing the intent behind the words. The narrator of this book Falls far far shorter of that standard. It is nevertheless worth suffering through the narrator for the information the book contains. that said, I would highly recommended on the merits of the book's content.

Informative

This book was very informative and much too short. I have not yet been able to read/listen to chariots of the gods, but I am looking forward to it. Thank you. The narrator was also excellent. Clear, enunciated well, and I don’t speak French, but it sounded good. Mind you, the book is not in French, but there are a couple of names that are French. Really good book!

The Truth

I love the information given in this book. It helps give a clear understanding of the Bible and our true history that been hidden too long.

I hoped for more

I think I may have to listen to it again. I think I somehow missed the Von Daniken wow moment. The reader did an excellent job but for me his non-Daniken voice got distracting once or twice. It made me think Steven Greer a couple of times, whom we should all know is, for lack of a better way, quite beneath Daniken. So what can I say? I've got to listen again.

Interesting read

Not sure what to make of this book. Kind of fantastical ideas but very entertaining

Amazing,

Full of insight, that can only be obtained from years of research. So happy he put it on paper.

Genius Erich Von Daniken

I am thankful for his continuous research and effort in making humankind to understand the ET or Ancient Aliens . This world operates on materialistic needs and always looking for “ What is in for me or what benefit do I have “. Any one with curiosity and open mind , they will understand the irrefutable facts he puts on the table for the people to grasp . Fantastic book and facts based explanations.

fantastic!

I loved it, very thought provoking and paradigm shifting. A must read for people interested in our origin.

Thoroughly enjoyed it

I don't understand the poor reviews. Sure, it had some repeat info, but as someone who is interested in legends and old traditions, I got a lot out of this, especially the latter chapters I think maybe there are "alien snobs" just as there are other types, but for folks who are not as well-versed as others, this is a good choice.
