About this listen

The original book made into this audiobook is the first in-depth, authoritative look at the flying-saucer phenomenon and is considered to this day to be one of the best works on the subject ever made. It is an extremely well-researched work with facts that were documented, containing none of the disinformation and hype that has crept into the field over time.

The author was a retired Marine Corps major who became an aviation writer and was therefore perfect for the job of researching and creating this work. Using his own knowledge and information from friends in the military, Keyhoe came to the conclusion that UFOs originate from outer space and the US military was engaged in a cover-up.

He includes a number of documented cases where thousands of people witnessed strange objects in the sky, all at the same time and in various parts of the country. Eyewitnesses are interviewed, and much is done to show how and why the veil of government secrecy was enforced.

This is an important book for anyone setting out to understand the phenomenon of UFOs and its treatment by government. Unfortunately this audio book is undermined by its poor reading. An American narrator should have been chosen to match the nationality of the author. And the northern British narrator’s unnecessary attempts at a range of American accents are laughable and unprofessional. I say this as someone British myself. If I was a US national I would be offended by the risible attempts to copy my country’s accents. This audio copy should be withdrawn and re-voiced before re-releasing.

Important and historic book let down by poor narration
