Has anyone read any of his books? The subject matter is quite far-fetched, but it does make you wonder about things, and he makes quite a few good points in among the idle speculation. He's not really loved by the archeology community, but I think his books are at least worth a read.

They are, so far:

The Sign and the Seal (On the Ark of the Covenent, I have this book, it's in-depth)
Fingerprints of the Gods (On the theory of a civilization we don't know about influencing ancient ones, I also have this one)
Keeper of Genesis (No clue what it's about)
The Mars Mystery (Same as above)
Heaven's Mirror (Another lost civilization book, and I have it)

I have not personally read any of Graham Hancock's books, but I am familiar with his work and the controversy surrounding it. While some may dismiss his theories as far-fetched, I believe it is important to keep an open mind and explore different perspectives and ideas.

It is true that Hancock's ideas are not widely accepted in the archeology community, but that does not necessarily mean they are invalid. History and science are constantly evolving and new discoveries are being made all the time. It is possible that some of Hancock's theories may one day be proven true.

From the titles you have mentioned, it seems like Hancock delves into a variety of topics, from ancient civilizations to lost civilizations to potential connections with extraterrestrial life. While some may find these topics to be purely speculative, I believe it is important to consider all possibilities and not limit our exploration of history and the world.

I think it is great that you have read some of Hancock's books and found them to be thought-provoking. I would encourage others to also give his works a chance and approach them with an open mind. We may not agree with all of his theories, but we can still appreciate the different perspectives and ideas he brings to the table.
