Question by Kris: What’s the best book to read about the mystery of ancient civilizations and alien visitors ?

Best answer:

Answer by SmartAZ
You don’t have to read many pages in history to realize that the sky above the Earth looked very different just a few thousand years ago. You might wonder why the ancients named their god after a planet that most people now can’t even point to. Well, they were quite explicit about that: they didn’t worship a god named for a planet, they worshiped the planet. In ancient days, Jupiter and Saturn dominated the sky.

Here is a scientific investigation of ancient myths and legends, considering stories in hundreds of languages from all over the world and going back to 10,500 BC. It is very long, and it is still in progress.

The Eragon series was pretty great. It was about magic, myth, and war. If you’ve already read that, I suggest the Demon King series. it’s like the Eragon series.

Question by Red: Looking for a good book to read – mystery, romance, colorful and possibly set in ancient Arabia?
I’m looking for a good summer read (or two or five…as many as you can give me)! No postmodern, sad/depressing analysis of the futile rat-race that is life; just high-tailed adventure with colour, love and dashing characters (not just a cheesy romance novel though – I definitely need a plot and some development. I was ideally looking for something set in ancient Arabia, but really, anything historic will do. Thanks so much! :)

Question by BrookEllis: Does this sound like an appealing story to read? 10 points(:?
I have started to write a story and want to know whether you would read onwards, any tips are appreciated. I am 13 and female by the way.

About – ‘Murderous Muse’ – 2 children explore a house, go missing and get lost. Time outside the house freezes, no-one can help, no-one knows they’re missing. And if they ever escape, will time ever be unfrozen?

Prologue:
The house dwarfed everything else in the street. It stood of a strong build, with eager enthusiasm to scare, to haunt, to turn night into day. Secrets were writhed into the walls of the house, as night bewildered it’s presence. To itself, the house was muse. Wooden boards enclosed the windows which ceased to be a rotten string of ivy, hanging to the cracks in the walls. Withered oak branches smouldered the remains of what used to be a door. Other houses which lingered on that very street, simplicity worked at it’s best. Tall houses; painted the blue only newborn baby’s eyes can describe; gardens with rose bushes and plum trees planted. But apart from the ego of a house so demonic, something didn’t seem correct; but no-one knew what…

BEGINNING OF STORY:
Brianna Perez was a small 12 year old of exactly five feet, who had beautiful, stick straight, flouncy brown hair down to her shoulders and tanned skin; the colour of sand. She walked with great posture and confidence beamed down on her. Her features denied such shyness she employed within, but Brianna believed she was beautiful and no-one could tell her otherwise. She did, however, have a twin brother. His name was Josh Perez, and he had all the same features as Brianna apart from his tufty blonde hair. The great American sunshine shone in the city of Tennessee, leaving a temperature of 38c emerging throughout the city for all to inhale.
A forest stood swaying in the slight breeze on the corner of Ewington Close, the road on which Brianna and Josh lived. It held a slight sense of murkiness and an eerie presence gathered at it’s sight. Daunted by the forest, many people of Tennessee turned around and ran with tears streaming from their face. No-one knew why, but this forest, was like an onion. Once you can see the inside, you start to cry. There is many a legend, that inside the forest lives fantasies of all kinds. Forest fluttering, shadowy ghost-like black horses than gallop through the mistified sky on a cold winter’s night; flowers that grow and strangle any living object that gets in it’s way; a moon with a face that smiles and cackles with an evil laughter. Ever since an incident a few years ago, no-one has dared enter the forest, leaving it nicknamed ‘No Man’s Forest.’ The incident was tragic and formed a scarceness of demonic myths to surround it. A 9 year old girl named Becky Plumber was playing truth or dare with her friend’s. She got dared to run in the forest, and run straight back out. So Becky, being the adventurous and outrageous child she was, ran in. But she never ran back out. A scream was heard then the howl of a wolf which freaked her gaggle of friend’s who ran shrieking, “He’s out to get us!” Her life and absentness remains a mystery, leaving her lost in a world of imagination.
Brianna was especially scared of the forest, as one day last October she saw something; a shadow of a human. In hear ears rang the words “Come with me, into the land of mystery…” and she heard it in a deep tone of a masculine voice. It was in no doubt coming from the shadow, it had to be a human. Perhaps it was Becky? But no, she didn’t wait around to find out, instead Brianna sprinted like a bolt of lightning travelling across an unlit circuit of flames with her face; pale and peak.

10 points to the answer that’s the most detailed!

It’s kind of cliched, but this is definitely a good start if you are only 13.

Question by jt: I need help with a book I read this summer…?
I read anywhere between 15 and 20 books this summer, mostly in July. They were all in the same category, or close, and I can’t remember the titles and authors of them all, but I can remember basically what every book was about. I don’t read fiction because I dont have time for anything else but what I WANT to know about and I dont get very much time to myself. One book in particular stands out, as it had an interesting twist on ancient history.. the origin of man, astronomy, and ‘hidden history’, which I love reading about. The problem is, I can’t remember the title OR the author, all I can remember is that it was something like ‘Hidden History’ (not by Cremo), and it has a sequel. I have looked on google and amazon to find ‘hidden history 2′ and ‘hidden history’ but none of the books it came up with was the one I was searching for. I would really like to buy this sequel, but with 3 small children, I can’t spend all day (or night, either) searching for this book.
Basically, the book was about this man’s search for the meaning of his life-long research into hidden history, the giza pyramids, ALL of the major pyramids from around the world, and how the layout of each one he researched were all star maps. He went on to tie in the oldest cave paintings known to man, and how the pyramid hieroglyphics all had this one symbol, resembling a cow’s leg, and how it’s actually a constellation. The constellation is the seven sisters, which the giza pyramids (orion’s belt) point to. From the seven sisters, there is a direction indicated that points to some mystery star where our species originated from. To blow your mind, if I remember correctly, we were intergalactic. The author implies that our species lived somewhere in orion’s belt, before that, somewhere in the seven sisters. Before THAT, the mystery star (well, a planet). And THAT is where we supposedly originated from millions of years ago. There was much more that he hinted about all throughout the book, which he reveals in the 2nd book. You could say I’m intrigued to see how it all pans out, because I love astronomy, ancient egypt, peru, and ancient mysteries, reincarnation, life after death, ufo’s (LoL, I know, I know!)… Even the crazy stories are fun for me. Everything he talked about in his book, and referenced, I had already read about, so none of it was over my head in the least. I even read about different religions and where and how they came about. I am on my own quest and I just really was interested in how he spun it ALLLLLLL together. If ANYONE can help me locate this book, I would greatly appreciate it. These type of books truly are equivalent TO ME to today’s reality shows and trashy romance novels that some of us can’t seem to get enough of. I really hate to ask someone, but I just DON’T have the time to track it down, or get to the library.. And I moved to a new state 900 miles from where I was living this past summer, so I can’t get to the library I was borrowing from… I hope I find this book, I have my fingers crossed = ) (in my mind)

Question by firefoxx04: is this mega deth… i just read the lyrics?
The quiet war has begun with silent weapons
And the new slavery is to keep the people
Poor and stupid, “Novus Ordo Seclorum”

How can there be any logic in biological war?
We all know this is wrong, but the New World Order’s
Beating down the door, oh something needs to be done

There was a King (evil king) who dreamt the wickeness of dreams
An ancient mystery no prohet could interpret
Of seven years of famine, the wolf is at my door
As predicted years ago, that that was, that is, that is no more

The word predicts the future and tells the truth about the past
Of how the world leaders were hailed unto Pharoah
The Eighth False King to the Throne, Washington is Next!

Disengage their minds, sabotage their health
Promote sex, and war, and violence in the kindergartens
Blame the parents and teachers; it’s their fault, “Annuit Coeptis”
Attack the church dynamic, attack the family
Keep the public undisciplined till nothing left is sacred and
The “have-nots” get hooked and have to go to the “haves” just to cop a fix

I am the King (evil king) who dreams the wickedness of dreams
An ancient mystery nobody could interpret
Of seven empires falling, the wolf is at my door
As predicted years ago, that that was, that is, that is no more

The word predicts my future and tells the truth about my past
Of how the world leaders are waiting to usher in
The Eighth World Power of modern Rome, Washington is Next!

There was a King (evil king) who dreamt the wickness of dreams
An ancient mystery no prophet could interpret
Of seven empires falling, the wolf is at the door
As predicted years ago, that that was, that is, that is no more

I am a King and I dream the wildest dreams
And nobody could interpret
Seven empires falling, the wolf is at my door
Oh, that that was, that is, that is no more

There’s something at my door
Some ancient mystery
The future tells the truth about the past
I’m the Eighth False King to the throne
I’ve got you in my crosshairs, now, ain’t that a bitch?

Washington, you’re next!
