New Releases by Graham Hancock

UNA INVESTIGACIÓN FASCINANTE Y CONTROVERTIDA SOBRE LOS MISTERIOS DE NUESTRO PASADO ¿Es posible que la historia de la humanidad se remonte mucho más atrás en el tiempo de lo que creíamos? UNA INVESTIGACIÓN FASCINANTE Y CONTROVERTIDA SOBRE LOS MISTERIOS DE NUESTRO PASADO ¿Es posible que la historia de la humanidad se remonte mucho más atrás en el tiempo de lo que creíamos? Mediante el uso de herramientas tan variadas como la arqueoastronomía, la geología y el análisis informático de mitos antiguos, Graham Hancock presenta argumentos convincentes para sugerir que sí lo es. En Las huellas de los dioses, Hancock se embarca en una búsqueda por todo el mundo para reunir las piezas del vasto y fascinante rompecabezas del pasado oculto de la humanidad. Monumentos antiguos y tan distantes entre sí como la Gran Esfinge de Egipto, las extrañas ruinas andinas de Tihuanaco y los sobrecogedores Templos del Sol y de la Luna de México, revelan no solo las claras huellas dactilares de una civilización aún no identificada de la más remota antigüedad, sino también sorprendentes pruebas de su enorme sofisticación, sus avances tecnológicos y sus evolucionados conocimientos científicos. Y algo más. A medida que descubrimos la verdad sobre la prehistoria y conocemos el verdadero significado de los antiguos mitos y monumentos que aún siguen en pie en todo el mundo, resulta evidente que se trata de advertencias sobre un terrible cataclismo que afecta a la Tierra en grandes ciclos a intervalos irregulares de tiempo… y que podría estar a punto de repetirse.

全球暢銷1億冊經典《上帝的指紋》，古文明權威葛瑞姆‧漢卡克最新鉅作！ 地球失落文明之謎的解答找到了!? 最新的考古學和DNA證據，將揭開美洲並不是「新大陸」的驚天之謎！ 美洲人的DNA之謎／亞馬遜雨林的科學奧祕／隱藏在土方工程的天文學和幾何學／北美與古埃及的相似靈魂觀…… ──在新仙女木期災變發生前，美洲大陸到底「曾有過」什麼？ 末次冰河時期結束時的那場全球大災難，是否曾將某個先進文明從歷史上一筆抹煞？ 全球暢銷作家葛瑞姆‧漢卡克，窮盡畢生之力想找出這個問題的答案。在本書中，他以最新的考古學和DNA證據佐證他的研究，並提出一個驚人的結論！ ‧暢銷20萬冊！甫上市即登英國《星期日泰晤士報》暢銷書榜第8名，美國《紐約時報》暢銷書榜第6名！ ‧榮登美國亞馬遜「史前史」第1名！讀者4.7顆星推薦！ 專文推薦／周健 中國文化大學史學系兼任副教授 譯者導讀／潘恩典 中正大學外文系博士 各界推薦／工頭堅 《旅飯》創辦人｜邱建一 藝術史學者 ──按姓氏筆劃序 一個引人入勝的史前史替代版本。《諸神的足跡》詳細而廣泛，將神話和傳說轉變成了過去的新故事。 ──每日郵件（Daily Mail） 歷經二十五年的奔波和研究，彙整考古學、遺傳學、天文學、氣象學、農業經濟學、人種學、地質學和古生物學的線索，呈現失落文明之謎最完整的解釋。 十三萬年前美洲就有人類存在了？ 亞馬遜雨林部落竟有強烈的澳大拉西亞DNA訊息？ 雨林中的「黑土」，能把荒地變成沃土，而且有驚人的復原能力？ 北美密西西比文明和古埃及文明有相同的靈魂歸宿概念？ 世界各地的遠古神聖建築，都具有重要的科學「迷因」？ 末次冰河時期結束時的那場全球大災難，是否曾將某個先進文明從歷史上一筆抹煞？隨著新發現的出現，我們現在知道早在十三萬年前，美洲就已經有人類存在，直到幾萬年後，人類才開始在其他各大洲定居。 漢卡克在書中介紹了他在各地研究的經歷，和他與那些做出重大新發現的科學家的互動。他在走訪密西西比河谷和亞馬遜雨林等地區後，發現遠古「新大陸」的文化，居然和照理說完全不相關的「舊大陸」文化，都繼承了一套相同的先進科學知識和複雜的精神信仰。 這是不是意味著考古學家在尋找文明的起源時，一直只著重於對「舊大陸」的研究，因此忽略了一個他們難以想像的可能性，那就是文明的起源地也許就位在「新大陸」。 漢卡克數十年來發表的多本著作，一直深受數百萬讀者的喜愛。而《諸神的足跡》更是他的登峰造極之作。本書對遠古謎團的探索一定能讓你大開眼界。此外，漢卡克還介紹了驚人的考古發現，並「以古為鏡」地對現代生活做了深刻反省。

Cortés and his small army of Conquistadors enter Tenochtitlan, the island city of the Aztecs, as guests of the psychotic emperor Moctezuma who plans to trap them there and kill them all. In a stunning coup, Cortés acts first, taking the emperor hostage and ruling the Aztecs through him. All of Mexico seems about to fall into his hands until a report comes from the coast of the arrival of a new force of Spaniards with more than three times his numbers, sent not to strengthen him but to attack him and wrest the conquest from him. Faced with the choice of abject surrender or war with fellow Spaniards Cortés chooses war and marches out to do battle but, in so doing he fatally weakens his garrison in Tenochtitlan and throws open the doors of Hell.

Cerca del final de la última Edad del Hielo, hace 12.000 años, un gigantesco cometa que había entrado en el sistema solar desde las profundidades del espacio miles de años antes se rompió en múltiples fragmentos. Algunos chocaron contra la Tierra, originando un cataclismo global a una escala nunca vista desde la extinción de los dinosaurios. Al menos ocho de los fragmentos cayeron en el casquete polar norteamericano y otros más en el casquete polar europeo. Una segunda serie de impactos tuvieron lugar hace 11.6000 años, la fecha exacta que da Platón para la destrucción y hundimiento de la Atlántida. Las evidencias reveladas en este libro demuestran más allá de cualquier duda razonable que una civilización avanzada floreció durante la Edad del Hielo y fue destruida por un cataclismo global hace entre 12.800 y 11.600 años. Sin embargo, hubo supervivientes, conocidos para culturas posteriores como «los sabios», «los magos», «los que brillan» y «los misteriosos maestros de los cielos». Viajaron por el mundo en sus grandes barcos haciendo todo lo que estaba en su poder para mantener viva la llama dela civilización. Se asentaron en puntos clave: Göbekli Tepe (Turquía), Baalbeck (Líbano), Guiza (Egipto), la antigua Súmer, México, Perú y el Pacífico, donde recientemente se ha descubierto una inmensa pirámide en Indonesia. A donde quiera que iban, estos «magos de los dioses» llevaban consigo el recuerdo de una época en la cual la humanidad había perdido su armonía con el universo y pagado un elevado precio por ello.

*Ten-year anniversary edition with new introduction from the author* Star Reader Reviews - "✩✩✩✩✩ Captivating, necessary and enlightening." "✩✩✩✩✩ Essential. Wonderfully researched." "✩✩✩✩✩ This book is as good, if not better, than "Fingerprints of the Gods." "✩✩✩✩✩ Read this book. Change your perspective." Graham Hancock - star of Netflix''s ANCIENT APOCOLYPSE - is author of the global bestseller Fingerprints of the Gods. A book which remains an astonishing, deeply controversial, wide-ranging investigation of the mysteries of our past and the evidence for Earth''s lost civilization. Magicians of the Gods, the sequel to his seminal work, explores how, at the end of the last ice age, fragments from a giant comet caused a global cataclysm, on a scale unseen since the extinction of the dinosaurs, wiping out an advanced civilization from the earth. Making us a species with amnesia, forced to begin again like children with no memory of what went before. This book is filled with completely new evidence, new travels to the world''s most mysterious archaeological sites, new insights based on the latest scientific evidence. The impacts, from the comet fragments (a mile wide approaching at more than 60,000 miles an hour) generated huge amounts of heat which instantly liquidized millions of square kilometers of ice, destabilizing the Earth''s crust and causing the global deluge that is remembered in myths all around the world. A second series of impacts, equally devastating, causing further cataclysmic flooding, occurred 11,600 years ago, the exact date that Plato gives for the destruction and submergence of Atlantis. But there were survivors - known to later cultures by names such as ''the Sages'', ''the Magicians'', ''the Shining Ones'', and ''the Mystery Teachers of Heaven''. They travelled the world in their great ships doing all in their power to keep the spark of civilization burning, settling at key locations: Gobekli Tepe in Turkey, Baalbek in the Lebanon, Giza in Egypt, ancient Sumer, Mexico, Peru and across the Pacific. Everywhere they went these ''Magicians of the Gods'' brought with them the memory of a time when mankind had fallen out of harmony with the universe and paid a heavy price. A memory and a warning to the future... For the comet that wrought such destruction may not be done with us yet. Astronomers believe that a 20-mile wide ''dark'' fragment of the original giant comet remains hidden within its debris stream and threatens the Earth. An astronomical message encoded at Gobekli Tepe, and in the Sphinx and the pyramids of Egypt, warns that the ''Great Return'' will occur in our time...

''I suspect the real breakthroughs in our understanding of consciousness are going to come from an entirely different direction. That direction, controversially, has to do with psychedelics - which, as many of the contributors to The Divine Spark argue, offer spectacular potential for the investigation of the "hard problem" of consciousness.'' - Graham Hancock, from the Introduction. In The Divine Spark, bestselling author Graham Hancock brings us a groundbreaking collection of the latest thinking on consciousness and psychedelics. Graham has been writing and speaking about this to audiences worldwide, including a controversial TedX talk on ayahuasca and DMT, which received over 130,000 views on YouTube. Combining the wisdom of leading minds, The Divine Spark illuminates the topic like never before, with a particular focus on the use of psychedelics to open up the realm of the supernatural. The book unveils fresh theories on the relation of psychedelics to domains such as creativity, the survival of life on planet earth, interspecies communication, medicine and drug research, and many more. Contributors include: Mike Alvernia, Russell Brand, David Jay Brown, Paul Devereux, Rick Doblin, Amanda Fielding, Nassim Haramein, Martina Hoffman, Don Lattin, Eduardo Luna, Dennis McKenna, Thad McKraken, Rak Razam, Gabriel Roberts, Thomas B. Roberts, Robert Schoch, Mark Seelig, Rick Strassman and Robert Tindall.

La gran epopeya sobre la conquista de México de la mano de uno de los autores más aclamados del género, traducido a veintisiete idiomas y con más de cinco millones de ejemplares vendidos. Tenochtitlán, 1519. Moctezuma reina sobre un imperio que es temido y odiado por el resto de las naciones aborígenes de la región, súbditas de los aztecas y obligadas a entregar jóvenes para los sangrientos sacrificios con que aquellos rinden tributo al dios de la guerra Huitzilopochtli. El poder del imperio azteca parece invencible, pero la rebelión se está fomentando lentamente, ayudada por los rumores de que hombres de piel clara, barba y armas tan extrañas como letales se aproximan a la cuidad. Tozi es una muchacha de catorce años, con extraños poderes sobrenaturales, que ha sido apresada por los aztecas y espera en una celda a que le llegue el turno de ser sacrificada. Coyolt es un niño de seis años y compañero de cautiverio. Pepillo es un joven que se prepara para embarcarse en una expedición a México desde la colonia española de Cuba. Los tres convergerán en esta historia épica que narra el apasionado y brutal choque de dos imperios.

This is the epic story of the clash of two empires, two armies and two gods of war. Five hundred desperate adventurers are about to pit themselves against the most brutal armies of the ancient Americas, armies hundreds of thousands strong. Dark powers that work behind the scenes of history show their hand as the prophecy of the return of Quetzalcoatl is fulfilled with the arrival of Cortes. The Aztec ruler Moctezuma fights to maintain the demands of the war god Huitzilopochtli for human sacrifice. The Spanish Inquisition is planning an even greater blood-letting. Yet, in the midst of the brutal and bloody battles, deep friendship and love survive through the massacres. Tozi, a young girl, who has seen many deaths inflicted in many ingenious and horrible ways, uses her magical gifts to save those she loves. Pepillo, a Spanish orphan who serves a sadistic Dominican friar, is taken under the wing of Cortes, and begins to learn what it takes to be a conquistador. They are caught up in the headlong collision between two gods of war, along with Malinal, a beautiful sex slave, whose hatred of Moctezuma runs so deep she will sell out her own land and people to destroy him. Praise for "WAR GOD: Nights of the Witch" ''Five hundred years ago the old Mexican prophecy which announced the return of Quetzalcoatl came true. In an era dominated by human sacrifices and the decadence of a great culture, bearded men, white-faced, from beyond the sea, arrived to impose their law. In this fast-moving, highly recommended novel, Graham Hancock masterfully reconstructs the biggest clash of civilizations ever, revealing aspects that only a genius author could unveil.'' Javier Sierra, New York Times bestselling author of "The Secret Supper" and "The Lost Angel" ''. . . part historical fact, part fantasy, the effect is as intense as the events themselves. It''s a fascinating read that will have you booking a flight to Mexico long before you finish the book.'' "London Evening Standard" ''The book offers up a heady mix of action, politics, spirituality and the supernatural . . . Convincing fantasy elements and viscerally recreated details keep the narrative charging forward.'' "Daily Mail" ''Interweaving historical fact and vivid fiction, Graham Hancock''s "War God" is packed full of blood, guts, conflict, sacrifice and witchcraft in the last days of the Aztec empire. The story of the Spanish conquest of Mexico and the downfall of Moctezuma is the perfect (if very gory) distraction from modern life.'' "Wanderlust" ''It will have you hyperventilating within minutes . . . Meets all the "thriller" criteria with gusto.'' "Newcastle Journal" ''Graham Hancock has, once again, produced a book that entertains as well as educates . . . "War God" is a rich and deeply involving novel that grips you from the very first page. If you can handle the gruesome detail, then you will devour every page and the end will come too soon, leaving you desperate for book two . . .'' "Sir Read-A-Lot Blog"

Could the story of mankind be far older than we have previously believed? Using tools as varied as archaeo-astronomy, geology, and computer analysis of ancient myths, Graham Hancock presents a compelling case to suggest that it is. Graham Hancock is featured in Ancient Apocalypse, a Netflix original docuseries. “A fancy piece of historical sleuthing . . . intriguing and entertaining and sturdy enough to give a long pause for thought.”—Kirkus Reviews In Fingerprints of the Gods, Hancock embarks on a worldwide quest to put together all the pieces of the vast and fascinating jigsaw of mankind’s hidden past. In ancient monuments as far apart as Egypt’s Great Sphinx, the strange Andean ruins of Tihuanaco, and Mexico’s awe-inspiring Temples of the Sun and Moon, he reveals not only the clear fingerprints of an as-yet-unidentified civilization of remote antiquity, but also startling evidence of its vast sophistication, technological advancement, and evolved scientific knowledge. A record-breaking number one bestseller in Britain, Fingerprints of the Gods contains the makings of an intellectual revolution, a dramatic and irreversible change in the way that we understand our past—and so our future. And Fingerprints of God tells us something more. As we recover the truth about prehistory, and discover the real meaning of ancient myths and monuments, it becomes apparent that a warning has been handed down to us, a warning of terrible cataclysm that afflicts the Earth in great cycles at irregular intervals of time—a cataclysm that may be about to recur. “Readers will hugely enjoy their quest in these pages of inspired storytelling.”—The Times (UK)

A compelling brew of mystery, crime, and science revealing the details behind the search for the lost Ark of the Covenant. The Lost Ark of the Covenant is one of the great historical mysteries of all time. To believers, the Ark is the legendary vessel holding the stone tablets of the Ten Commandments. The Bible contains hundreds of references to the Ark''s power to level mountains, destroy armies, and lay waste to cities. The Ark itself, however, mysteriously disappears from recorded history sometime after the building of the Temple of Solomon. After ten years of searching through the dusty archives of Europe and the Middle East, as well as braving the real-life dangers of a bloody civil war in Ethiopia, Graham Hancock has succeeded where scores of others have failed. This intrepid journalist tracked down the true story behind the myths and legends--revealing where the Ark is today, how it got there, and why it remains hidden. Part fascinating scholarship and part entertaining adventure yarn, tying together some of the most intriguing tales of all time--from the Knights Templar and Prester John to Parsival and the Holy Grail--this book will appeal to anyone fascinated by the revelation of hidden truths, the discovery of secret mysteries.

Los Angeles, terzo millennio della nostra era: Leoni, un’adolescente ribelle finisce in overdose e sperimenta un’esperienza di premorte. La sua anima viene catapultata in una realtà parallela collocata nel passato di 24.000 anni fa. Qui il suo destino si lega indissolubilmente a quello di Ria, una giovane donna dell’Età della Pietra nel pieno della sua battaglia contro i feroci Illimani, un popolo guidato da Sulpa, il potente demone deciso a distruggere l’umanità. Mentre i guerrieri condotti da Ria stanno per soccombere all’impeto del nemico spietato, Sulpa muove i suoi passi verso lo scopo finale: manifestarsi fisicamente nel ventunesimo secolo per condannare l’umanità alla schiavitù perenne. L’ora è ormai vicina e ogni speranza sembra perduta. Ma forse non del tutto se Leoni e Ria, come è scritto nel loro destino, riusciranno a unirsi al di fuori del flusso del tempo e, avventurandosi oltre i confini del conoscibile, a combattere la loro grande battaglia finale...

"[A] solid, fast-moving, metaphysical time-travel tale." —Library Journal Graham Hancock has spent decades researching and writing some of the most ambitious and successful nonfiction investigations into ancient civilizations and wisdom. Entangled uses all of Hancock''s skills and knowledge to propel a fantasy adventure like nothing else preceding it. Entangled is a timeslip novel alternating between present day California, Brazil, and prehistoric Spain, with two teenage female protagonists who must come together to avert an incredibly bloodthirsty takeover of the human race. It is the story of an unrelentingly evil master magician named Sulpa who is on the loose and determined to destroy humanity. Leoni, a troubled teen from modern day Los Angeles, and Ria, a young woman who lives in Stone Age Spain, meet in a parallel dimension outside the flow of time to stop Sulpa''s spectacular, deadly materialization of the modern world. Originally written as the first of trilogy that never came to be, Entangled can be enjoyed by fans of parallel dimensions and imaginary worlds and will have resonate with readers of Philip Pullman, Stephen King, Neil Gaiman, and Kate Mosse, among others. Entangled has the added merit of being grounded in solid anthropological and scientific research. Hancock calls on his years of research into cutting edge issues, including the "Neanderthal Enigma," the nature of consciousness, the many worlds interpretation of quantum physics, parallel realms, time travel, and near death and out-of-body experiences.

An asteroid transformed Mars from a lush planet with rivers and oceans into a bleak and icy hell. Is Earth condemned to the same fate, or can we protect ourselves and our planet from extinction? In his most riveting and revealing book yet, Graham Hancock examines the evidence that the barren Red Planet was once home to a lush environment of flowing rivers, lakes, and oceans. Could Mars have sustained life and civilization? Megaliths found on the parched shores of Cydonia, a former Martian ocean, mirror the geometrical conventions of the pyramids at Egypt''s Giza necropolis. Especially startling is a Sphinx-like structure depicting a face with distinguishable diadem, teeth, mouth and an Egyptian-style headdress. Might there be a connection between the structures of Egypt and those of Mars? Why does NASA continue to dismiss these remarkable anomalies as "a trick of light"? Hancock points to the intriguing possibility that ancient Martian civilization is communicating with us through the remarkable structures it left behind. In exploring the possible traces left by the Martian civilization and the cosmic cataclysm that may have ended it, The Mars Mystery is both an illumination of our ancient past and a warning--that we still have time to heed--about our ultimate fate.

What secrets lie beneath the deep blue sea? Underworld takes you on a remarkable journey to the bottom of the ocean in a thrilling hunt for ancient ruins that have never been found—until now. Graham Hancock is featured in Ancient Apocalypse, a Netflix original docuseries In this explosive new work of archaeological detection, bestselling author and renowned explorer Graham Hancock embarks on a captivating underwater voyage to find the ruins of a mythical lost civilization hidden for thousands of years beneath the world’s oceans. Guided by cutting-edge science, innovative computer-mapping techniques, and the latest archaeological scholarship, Hancock examines the mystery at the end of the last Ice Age and delivers astonishing revelations that challenge our long-held views about the existence of a sunken universe built on the ocean floor. Filled with exhilarating accounts of his own participation in dives off the coast of Japan, as well as in the Mediterranean, the Atlantic, and the Arabian Sea, we watch as Hancock discovers underwater ruins exactly where the ancient myths say they should be—submerged kingdoms that archaeologists never thought existed. You will be captivated by Underworld, a provocative book that is both a compelling piece of hard evidence for a fascinating forgotten episode in human history and a completely new explanation for the origins of civilization as we know it.

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • Two Egypt experts posit a revolutionary theory: The Sphinx and other great Egyptian monuments are older than common history books tell us and are arranged in such a way as to send us a message from the silent past. Graham Hancock is featured in Ancient Apocalypse, a Netflix original docuseries Guardian of the ancient mysteries, the keeper of secrets . . . For thousands of years the Great Sphinx of Egypt has gazed toward the east, its eyes focused on eternity, reading a message in the stars that mankind has long forgotten. And today as our civilization stands poised at the end of a great cycle, it is a message that beckons insistently to be understood. All the clues are in place. Geology and archeo-astronomy have already indicated that the lion-bodied Sphinx may be vastly older than Egyptologists currently believe, dating not from 2500 B.C., but from 10,500 B.C.—the beginning of the astrological Age of Leo. And we now know that the three pyramids of Giza, standing on high ground half a mile to the west of the Sphinx, are in fact a precise map of the three stars of Orion’s belt, formed in fifteen million tons of solid stone. Are these monuments trying to tell us something? And, if so, what? In The Message of the Sphinx, Robert Bauval and Graham Hancock present a tour de force of historical and scientific detective work that unravels the millennial code embodied in these structures. Using sophisticated computer simulations of ancient skies, they unravel the riddle of the Sphinx, and they present a startling new theory concerning the enigmatic Pyramid Texts and other archaic Egyptian scriptures. Their discoveries lead the authors to this question: Does mankind have a rendezvous with destiny—a rendezvous not in the future, but in the distant past, at a precise place and time? The secrets can be kept no longer. The Message of the Sphinx brings them to light.
