Book Description
High up in the Bolivian Andes-4,000 meters above sea level-lies Puma punku, an ancient ruined city that simply could never have been constructed by its Stone Age inhabitants."Something here really stinks to high heaven," writes Erich von Däniken."In Twilight of the Gods," says von Däniken, "I document precisely what it was that left the first visitors breathless as they stood before the mighty stone blocks some 400 years ago. I will show you what archeologists discovered hundreds of years ago and demonstrate how much has been destroyed over the centuries. Intentionally."I will also prove that Puma punku was not built by any Stone Age people."And in December 2012, the gods will return from their long journey and appear again here on Earth. At least that is what the Mayan calendar would have us believe."The so-called gods-the extraterrestrials-will come again. We're headed for a 'god shock' of major proportions."But doesn't anyone with half a brain know that interstellar travel is simply impossible because of the sheer distances involved? And that extraterrestrials would never look like us?"In his own inimitable way, Erich von Däniken picks these preconceptions and prejudices apart with a clarity no other author could manage.

Twilight of the Gods,
By
This review is from: Twilight Of The Gods (Paperback)
This is a great read. The author goes into great detail and has evidence that is very hard to refute. I think that the science community should open their closed minds for a change, and look at the evidence. No stoneage peoples could have built these awesome monolithic structures without some help. I would love to hear some of the explanations from the scientists.

Excellent book!!,
This review is from: Twilight Of The Gods (Paperback)
I'm only half way throughout the book and couldn't hold back on giving some feedback. Fantastic book, the proof and evidence that the author has backed up is astonishing. The authors aggressive style of righting really compels and shock's people into looking father into this subject. Personally recommend it, it's one of my favourites.

Erich von Däniken has a better understanding of ourancient past and our possible future than most of the experts. TWILIGHT OF THE GODS is a real eye opener and will stimulate the mind of every reader.
