Did you ever notice the striking similarities between a magic circle and a UFO? I recently picked up a copy of Tom DeLonge & Peter Levenda’s non-fiction book, “Gods, Man, & War…

What I discovered in writing the first part of Prisoner of Infinity is how the experiences of alleged alien abductees like Whitley Strieber, whether phantasy, reality, or some little understood combination of the…

Strieber is not offering this description as an example of being “evolved” through trauma. He merely includes it as a preamble to the remarkable statement that follows it.
“Pain” is the story Whitley Strieber was working on in December 1985, when the memories of his alleged alien encounters first began to surface.
