Chariot Of The Gods

I had heard about this book, but never read it until recently. There was a copy on a central table at a local bookstore, and I decided to give it a try. Brawl stars download pc. Turns out there was nothing new to me in the book. I have seen several speculative history/science TV documentaries that cover the same material.

I have it tagged as both fiction and non-fiction. It seems obsessed with the idea of alien progenitors, which while I can't rule out 100%, seems unlikely. But I imagine many of the naysayers who revile von Daniken believe just as strongly in some god or religion, which is just as far-fetched. I think aliens and gods are the opposite sides of the same coin.

After thumbing through the book again recently I confirmed my suspicions that it is of course pseudo scientific drivel. A parade of carefully chosen 'evidence' selected to match a kooky theory. Despite this book being supposedly non fiction in nature, I cannot help but wonder how much popular science fiction owes its existence to this book.

The story behind the movie and series Stargate, for example, seems to be inspired by ideas in this book. I think many writers of speculative fiction today read this popular book back in the 70s and it continues to influence. Its worth reading for this reason alone.
