A meditation on indigenous
humanoids
and
the aliens among us
“If
evidence for the Extraterrestrial Hypothesis has failed to
surface—despite decades of hard work and diligent investigations—then
maybe we should consider the notion that we are looking for the answers
in all the wrong places. Instead of looking up, maybe we should be
looking around us. And, perhaps, even below us, too.” – From the
Foreword by Nick Redfern,
author of On the Trail
of the Saucer Spies
“The
Cryptoterrestrials
is the most refreshing speculation on the paranormal I've seen in ages.
The ideas in this book will be harvested by science-fiction writers and
TV shows like Fringe
for
decades. Even skeptics will have a great time reading this well written
book of wild conjecture. Mac Tonnies' final Fortean
landmark is the Book of
the Damned for the 21st century. Fans of the paranormal:
be there or be square.” – John
Shirley, author of Bleak
History
“This
book is an honest pursuit of ideas that might lead to some greater
understanding of the paranormal and the existence of an apparent
non-human intelligence…Mac Tonnies cuts through much of the self-satisfi
ed, bloated fundamentalist fat of the last fifty years with the deft
touch of a surgeon and the
encyclopedic knowledge of a veteran.” – From the Afterword by Greg Bishop, author
of Project
Beta
