1) Paperback Book The Cosmic War: Interplanetary Warfare, Modern Physics and Ancient Texts by Adventures Unlimited Press. I couldn´t put this book down. I didn´t notice anything written in The Cosmic War that contradicted the Bible, and also it expounds on consepts that most Pastors wouldn´t bother to put out there because the information isn´t considered foundational. Someone I mentioned this book to told me that the information distracts from the Gospel´s message and would only confuse people, I disagree. Faith comes from the Word of God, but this book could make a skeptic rethink their perspective enough to research further. If you are well grounded in your faith, and already have a secure relationship with Christ, this book is GREAT. However if you are not, then this book is only very very good.¤

2) Paperback Book The Cosmic War: Interplanetary Warfare, Modern Physics and Ancient Texts by Adventures Unlimited Press. Agree wholeheartedly that comparative mythology studies, current technology & astronomy, and politics share a common historical thread. As a warning, books of this genre will upset anyone who clings tightly to the TV-broadcast world view and/or strong religious beliefs promoted by hypocrites. IMHO, too many preach compassion but don´t walk the talk.

That said, Farrell accurately quotes numerous other authors. Finding actual remains of giants really intrigued me and I´ll have to explore that further. The physics was tough for me. Had to read outside of the book to see what the author was discussing. As a result, found another area to explore. I would have liked more about the ´tower of Babel´ technology because I think it´s what TV does to our minds now. Sometimes, the quotes from other authors go on too long but Farrell summarizes each chapter quite succinctly. There were a few typographical errors but I´ve seen worse in mainstream pubs.

Overall, of all the books I´ve read in this genre, Farrell presents the most convincing evidence that we are not or ever have been alone. We didn´t just happen to evolve from the apes in the last 10K years. Unfortunately, physical evidence is hard to find. Mythologies can be somewhat vague but the overlapping Pantheons can´t be a happy accident.¤

3) Paperback Book The Cosmic War: Interplanetary Warfare, Modern Physics and Ancient Texts by Adventures Unlimited Press. Joseph P. Farrell is man who fearlessly follows the truth wherever it leads. How much scientists and spiritual seekers could learn from his extraordinary example! If you already have your mind made up and don´t want to be confused with the facts about this subject, DON´T READ THIS BOOK!¤

4) Paperback Book The Cosmic War: Interplanetary Warfare, Modern Physics and Ancient Texts by Adventures Unlimited Press. The great thing about Joseph Farrell´s books are that aside from being interesting reads, they always challenge what you might term "conventional history", and thus regardless of whether you agree with him or not they always make you reconsider what previously you might have taken for granted to be fact. This book is certainly no exception to that.
I have mixed feelings about the book. On the negative side, some of the theories written by other researchers that Farrell uses to support his central theory of an ancient war in the solar system are not very credible, and also he rejects certain other researchers theories, but then actually uses them as supporting evidence.
For instance in the 3rd chapter of part 1, he discusses the work of Alan Alford who by the way believes that behind virtually all religions and philosophies "...there lies a single secret of stunning simplicity- the age-old myth of exploded planet." In my view Farrell rightfully rejects that theory, but then he goes on to use a slightly modified version of a formula Alford came up with in interpreting the ancient texts to back up his own theory. Where Alford equates the words Mountains = Planets = Gods , Farrell changes this to Mountains being closely associated with but not identical to Planets to Gods, and then proceeds to use that formula when he examines some of the ancient texts. Likewise with Zechariah Sitchin, where he rejects Sitchins theory that the theft of the Tablets of Destinies shut down communications between spaceports on Earth and another planet, but then goes on to use Sitchins theory as supporting evidence that as a result of the theft, there was a loss of communications between some of the Gods on Earth and elsewhere.
On the plus side, part 3 where he looks at external evidence of a war on other planets and moons in the solar system was really interesting, and I couldn´t put the book down until I´d read the whole part.
In addition the chapter on plasma cosmology was certainly intriguing, and I think there might be something to it.
The section on what kind of weapons systems that could have been used in the war was not exactly easy going as he writes about some pretty advanced stuff like optical phase conjugation and how it might possibly be used to create some type of planetary or star-busting weapon. However it´s certainly an important factor to consider, and after doing a little background reading, I was able to roughly understand the basic concepts, and to see how this kind of technology could potentially have been applied in the scenario described, and he does a pretty good job of interpreting some of the ancient texts along these lines.
Overall I wouldn´t say the book is exactly convincing but Farrell himself admits that it is "highly speculative," and considering the limited evidence that is currently available to us I think he´s done well in at least showing the cosmic war hypothesis to be a possibility.
Incidentally when the architect of the modern atomic bomb, Robert Oppenheimer was asked "how do you feel after having exploded the first atomic bomb on earth" he replied "not first atomic bomb, but first atomic bomb in modern times." Makes you wonder.

5) Paperback Book The Cosmic War: Interplanetary Warfare, Modern Physics and Ancient Texts by Adventures Unlimited Press. I´ve been reading this book for awhile now I have to say the author says a great deal but what he writes is empty. Many passages with references to ancient texts and myths and yet for a volume filled with speculation about cosmic war and epic battles, it fails to spark my interest, like opening a box of tastey cookies only to find they are horribly stale.¤
