From the Ashes of Angels: The Forbidden Legacy of a Fallen Race

Andrew Collins is a courageous man...for decades conspiracy researchers have speculated that Mankind's true history has been hidden -- everything from Atlantis and Lemuria to the true nature of the Nefelim and Elohim referenced in the Bible. Modern scientists will scoff at this, but of course a conspiracy theorist would counter that their Rockefeller-derived academic experience may have had a few holes in it. History is written by the Winners, edited by the Masters of War, and kept from the People, as it always has been. So using something called "psychic archaeology" (where psychics don't tell him what happened in the past, but rather where to look for hard archaeological evidence). The scope of this book is staggering and eye-popping, much like "The Book Of Enoch" which is the central source of the story Collins relates. It may read like science fiction, but it dovetails with so much other research from so many different directions that it has to be taken seriously. In my opinion, it is the one book that puts it all together. Myself, I have been following this story since the 70s, and have written a novel revolving around the same ideas Collins presents. "From the Ashes of Angels" is an amazing book for the general reader with an open mind, and it will open the door to a hundred other books, many of considerable scholarship, which will rewrite what we thought about history and who we think we are as a species. A simply brilliant achievement, and the culmination of a life's work of scholarship. See his website [...] for more info...

Author Collins does a remarkable job of gathering the faintest wisps of fact and weaves the barely discernible threads into a fascinating history of who the Watchers were, as described in the Book of Enoch. Collins admits his conclusions are speculative but he presents them in a logical and believable manner. For instance, he presents Noah as a Nephilim, a son of the Annunaki, which accounts for his long life. In another instance, the serpent that tempts Adam and Eve is a member of the fallen race dressed in shaman robes that venerates serpents. All of the events recounted by Collins occur long before the Great Flood of Noah, involving an ancient civilization for which the archaeologic evidence is scant or perhaps misinterpreted. According to Collins, the Flood occurred about 10,000 B.C., the same time as the alleged third cataclysm that finally destroyed Atlantis, which he mentions in passing. At the same time he avoids some of the controversial theories that state the cause of the Flood, such as Isaac Vail's Canopy Theory. From the Ashes of Angels will keep you turning page after page, wondering what happens next. Don Clifford, author, Ben Solomon in Destiny Diverted.

i am a researcher who relies mainly on Sitchin for history of the origin of man. this book does not contradict Sitchen. Collins has researched one of the groups of anunnaki that went to different areas in what is commonly called 'the diaspora', when anunnaki went to different places in the world to develop a higher culture there. my personal study at this time is of the groups of lesser anunnaki known as the igigi , some of which were individuals very different from humans who were not compatible to hibridize with them. there is very little information about these groups and it seems that they went to different areas of the earth, where archaeology now documents their presence as long as it lasted, Collins presented information that documented the presense of an odd type of being that i have not found other information about anywher else, this is a tall conehead type with exaggerated features found in a great many statues, which a number of authors 'on the speaking circuit' have claimed to be demons or reptilians, despite the fact that many statues depict females nursing babies, which seems to me makes them mammals. i think otherigigi broups are the Olmecs which may have had a 'three standard deviations on the bell curve' DNA similarity with humans and produced very few viable offspring, and lived in areas where many statues of males holding babiesare found. a third area of unique individuals i believe were an igigi group is the Paraas area conehead mummies, which include a number of babies. mtDNA found in genetic tests show no relationship to eath humans. it should be clear by now tthat i have abook in the works, and this book gave me a lot of imformation that i did not find in the thoudans of dollars of Amazon books i have that gave me bits and pieces that helped me to form a picture of history that has not been documented in depth elsewhere. as a writer i could possibly try to justify not capitalizing in my reviews to a broken thumb, but the fact is my typing was worse befoer it broke, and if Amazon wanted proper capitalization in these reviews, they would have put that feature in the program for these text blocks. . Collins is often cited in reviews as presenting unique information, and this is an example of some of it. the reason for 4 stars instead of five is that at some point the chapters seemed to go on to topics that were not needed and did not seem to further enlarge the previous information. many people find his books get a bit boring toward the end, and

Very good, important book. Very insiteful on pre-Turkish history. Did not know there was a "Book of Noah". Incredible. A good study of who the Watchers were, and there influence on the surrounding mid east cultures. A rare book on these subjects. We are a species with amnesia.

I found this book to be extremely well researched. Collins does a great job of laying out his hypothesis without jumping to conclusions. I recommend this book to anyone interested in this subject. I will certainly be on the lookout for other works by Mr Collins

Wow. The efforts the author put forth to look at ancient history, and where our ideas about religion came from, is heroic. There is no stone left unturned to figure out why early society believed in angels, fallen or otherwise, or "Watchers". I am half way through this book and find myself looking forward to times I have set aside to absorb all the knowledge (and theories) presented here. I have learned a lot about the history of the Middle East, and Kurdistan in particular. Excellent book, highly recommended

Das Buch war gut verpackt und kam früher als erwartet an, kann ich empfehlen!

This book had me enthralled, there is so much to take in and I have really enjoyed reading it. Andrew's books are always so well researched and presented, this is another fantastic read that expands the mind.

A thought provoking and interesting read

This book is an enlightening must read. Very factual, jumps about a bit historically, but had me enthralled. I enjoyed it so much that I bought 2 more copies for friends birthdays. You will enjoy it if you have an enquiring mind, and have read books on the egyptian enigma. This book gives an explanation of our origins.

Fabulous book. Thought provoking.
