Synopsis

Each of us are alive for a very limited time. Or are we?What if we could live not just for a century but for millennia? What if there were a way for us to never die? Is such a thing even remotely possible?It may not only be feasible; it may very well have been achieved in the distant past. Ancient aliens may well have uncovered the secrets behind slowing, and ultimately completely stopping, the aging process.History is filled with accounts of fantastic beings, powerful gods, and half-human/half-alien entities that had extraordinarily long life spans. Many such stories are now largely dismissed as nothing more than the stuff of legend, folklore, and mythology. But what if the accounts are all too real?Highlights of Immortality of the Gods include:The story of the legendary Anunnaki, how they achieved everlasting life, and why they shared their secrets with Noah, Methuselah, and other biblical figures;The saga of Gilgamesh, a long-lived part-human, part-extraterrestrial Sumerian ruler who was obsessed with immortality; andA study of the claims that one of the reasons for the 2003 invasion of Iraq was to uncover the millennia-old secrets of white powder gold, a manna-like substance that supposedly rejuvenates cells and tissue.

Goodreads review by Виктория on November 19, 2020

I love the stories in the book from ancient times but the author lines were little dry.......more

Goodreads review by Daniel on January 09, 2018

Style, very easy and fun to read. Information: a good survey but lacking details. Nick hypothesizes that gods, more likely ancient alien visitors, knew the secrets of immortality and once upon a time shared them with certain men. He defends this with a series of myths from around the world. That latte......more

Goodreads review by Peter A. Lio on September 22, 2021

There is some really interesting stuff in here, and I really do like his writing style overall. However, much of it felt “Frankenstein-ed” together, and several of the main topics seemed like they were simply being conflated.......more

Goodreads review by Ignacio on February 27, 2024

Cool sounding story. But he did quote a lot of other books making me believe his research although vast overshadowed his own thoughts......more

Quotes

“Bloodline of the Gods and Weapons of the Gods offer fresh perspectives and updated information on themes already well established in the literature. Immortality of the Gods, the third and final book in the series, breaks new ground. Nick Redfern takes us on a wild ride through time, space, and other dimensions in search of this elixir of immortality… and its connection to gold, an element that plays a large role in ancient alien lore.” Paranoia Magazine
