Reviews
"An exhilarating thrill ride from the first page with a compelling cast of characters, a tantalizing mystery, and a gripping adventure. I may not look at the night sky the same way again!" -David Morrell, New York Times bestselling author of The Shimmer, "Sekret Machines scratches at the surface of "who do" we trust with our classified technology - certainly our adversaries are aware of our undertakings, as they are doing the same, but what of our citizens, our politicians, even our own military. Tom DeLonge and A.J. Hartley create a convincing narrative describing the "cat and mouse" game that is timeless between strategic adversaries. It has existed under the sea, on the surface of the earth and in its skies, why wouldn't we believe it occurs in space. Our military leaders have been saying space is a contested environment for years now, perhaps we should believe them!" -Maj. Gen. Michael J. Carey - Special Assistant to the Commander, Air Force Space Command, "The prose is a joy; effortlessly pulling off the feat of making the unbelievable appear not only plausible but utterly, terrifyingly, realistic. ... Billed as the first of a trilogy, Sekret Machines redefines 'provocative'; we defy you not to lie awake questioning everything that you ever thought you knew after you've turned the last page." -STARBURST Magazine, "What you hold in your hands is a piece of a very large puzzle. It represents the first installment in one of the most ambitious projects ever undertaken in this or any other field. It is a project that involves science and history, politics and religion; fiction and non-fiction. All of these elements are woven together in an effort to express a singular truth. While they each can be appreciated in a stand-alone way-and who, after reading this thrilling novel, could disagree?-taken together they reveal an aspect of reality that is so astonishing that it only can be understood intuitively as well as rationally." -Peter Levenda, Author of Sekret Machines non-fiction series, "The generation-spanning, international scope of the story is impressive" and "a four-pronged thriller that hooks you in at different times" -UPSET Magazine, "It has intrigue, high-technology, betrayal, lights in the sky, religion, covert affairs, politics, history, and it takes everything you thought you knew about the world around you and flips it right over." -Modern Little Victories, Sekret Machines scratches at the surface of "who do" we trust with our classified technology - certainly our adversaries are aware of our undertakings, as they are doing the same, but what of our citizens, our politicians, even our own military. Tom DeLonge and A.J. Hartley create a convincing narrative describing the "cat and mouse" game that is timeless between strategic adversaries. It has existed under the sea, on the surface of the earth and in its skies, why wouldn't we believe it occurs in space. Our military leaders have been saying space is a contested environment for years now, perhaps we should believe them!" - Maj. Gen. Michael J. Carey - Special Assistant to the Commander, Air Force Space Command, "Twisted. Explosive. The best thriller of the year!" -New York Times bestselling author Faith Hunter

Synopsis
Somewhere between The X-Files and Oliver Stone's JFK, between Zero Dark Thirty and The Manhattan Project, in a world of deception run by the dark suits of Close Encounters, is Sekret Machines. The witnesses are legion, scattered across the world and dotted through history, people who looked up and saw something impossible lighting up the night sky. Among those who know what they've seen, and are forever changed by it, are a soldier, a socialite, a pilot and a prisoner. Featuring actual events and other truths, DeLonge offers a tale that is perhaps all too real., Praised as "an exhilarating thrill ride" that may never have you looking at the night sky the same way again, Chasing Shadows is the first book in the multimedia Sekret Machines franchise that will reveal fascinating secrets surrounding the true, well-documented events of Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon. Written by award-winning creator Tom DeLonge and NYTimes bestselling academic AJ Hartley in a powerful collaboration with top government advisors that keep the truth on course in this historical thriller. For those who know... that something is going on... The witnesses are legion, scattered across the world and dotted through history, people who looked up and saw something impossible lighting up the night sky. What those objects were, where they came from, and who--or what--might be inside them is the subject of fierce debate and equally fierce mockery, so that most who glimpsed them came to wish they hadn't. Most, but not everyone. Among those who know what they've seen, and--like the toll of a bell that can't be unrung--are forever changed by it, are a pilot, an heiress, a journalist, and a prisoner of war. From the waning days of the 20th century's final great war to the fraught fields of Afghanistan to the otherworldly secrets hidden amid Nevada's dusty neverlands--the truth that is out there will propel each of them into a labyrinth of otherworldly technology and the competing aims of those who might seek to prevent--or harness--these beings of unfathomable power. Because, as it turns out, we are not the only ones who can invent and build...and destroy. Featuring actual events and other truths drawn from sources within the military and intelligence community, Tom DeLonge and A.J. Hartley offer a tale at once terrifying, fantastical, and perhaps all too real. Though it is, of course, a work of... fiction?

- v***v (2062)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
- 2***j (113)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI've ordered several items from this vendor now and they've always been what they were advertised as. This was no exception. Both discs were in great shape as well as their jewel cases. Delivery is good, packaging is simple but effective for what you're paying and I haven't had any get damaged. Will keep buying from this vendor because of the results so far and good prices, too.
