Book Reviews of The Mothman Prophecies
Book Review: "It was a dark and stormy night"
Summary: 4 Stars
John Keel's "The Mothman Prophecies" follows a usual form for ufology books: He presents a large collection of anecdotes, personal observations and experiences, mixes it with some debunking to woo the scientific mind, and throws in some ancient gods and goddesses, references to fairies, and a variety of religious "sightings". This is par for the course in this genre, and puts this reviewer in mind of Charlie Brown's standard beginning for tales, "It was a dark and stormy night."
Despite its rather disorganized and somewhat repetitive presentation (again, fairly standard for this genre), Keel relates his narrative earnestly, and he will engage your interest. Men in Black? Saucer shaped vehicles with diamond-shaped windows? "Thyroid-like eyes"? If this gets your attention, you'll enjoy "The Mothman Prophecies."
The recent movie is based only loosely on Keel's research, by the way, and will fail to satisfy informed ufology readers.
