Nancy Nelson spent 25 years as a U.S. diplomat before leaving the State Department to write the Disclosure Files™ series — fast-paced novels set in the near future, where ordinary people go up against the financial and political elites who will do anything to keep the truth about UFOs, aliens, and advanced technology buried.

For the past two decades, I have been obsessed with questions about the nature of reality, and, to that end, have eagerly read books, watched videos, and attended conferences. I still have questions, but very few answers—at least not ones accepted by science. My latest book explores the possibilities that exist for humanity as we move forward on our evolutionary path. I would love to be in a position someday to write a definitive nonfiction book about this.(less)

What I liked: Decent writing, good story, and while it's clear the story continues, there are no cliffhangers. (I hate cliffhangers, and will abandon an otherwise good series if the author uses them.)

What I disliked: I nearly didn't read past the pro

At first, the story seemed to be following a well-trod former-special-forces-on-the-run trajectory, but then segued neatly into theories of consciousness and non-human intelligence. Interesting, well-written, and worth reading.
