[Dominik Kirtaime · Rating 5 out of 5]

The cases presented in this book are from the UK and are those where the victims are only aware of missing time and later using methods such as hypnosis find out that they were abucted and what happened during the abductions.

This book was originally published in the 1990s, but has recently been updated and reprinted.

"Without Consent" focuses on some extremely well researched, and often shocking British-based cases of people who believe they've been abducted by aliens - although it does reference similar cases from around the world.

The authors share each case based on the evidence as presented by the witnesses, and I liked how the book offers alternative suggestions as to what may have actually happened - mass hallucinations, electro magnetic interference with the human brain, etc.

Regardless of whether you believe the people featured in this book were abducted by aliens or not, all the experiencers appear to be sane, rational, honest and normal people who have all been through some incredibly traumatic and shocking experiences.

This book is well researched, well presented and it highlighted a wealth of amazing UK-based cases that I was previously unaware of. For anyone interested in the phenomenon, this book will be a fascinating read.

Disjointed mess

Far too many of the stories rely on hypnotic regression, something the author claims to disprove of. There are lots of absurd statements made, plus the kindle edition suffers from the usual problem of being poorly transferred from paperback. It's the kind of book I would have lapped up in the 90's, when I was a lot more naive and gullible.

Gave up after a couple of chapters

Dreadful boring book with such monotonous dialogue.

“Abductees” are like sci-fi fantasists that sound like they’ve watched too many B rated flying saucer movies.

Fascinating read

Fascinating read. I didn’t know there were so many UK based alien encounters! Certainly makes me want to explore the subject further!

This book is absolutely appallingly edited. It is littered with wrong words, spelling mistakes, missing punctuation.
The stories too are light on content, and the book felt repetitive.
