mentally agonizing, embarrassing, awkward, tedious

The definition of excruciating. 12 more hours, 42 minutes left to go in this audio book and I am torn what to do. I really enjoyed the first book, liked the second book, and appreciate what a great researcher and pulling-ideas-together kind of author David Wilcock is. And, I like David Wilcock's sincerity and the hard work he does.

But, this book is very frustrating. I am so bored with the lengthy childhood experiences being detailed - way too detailed. Yes, David Wilcock experienced bullying. But, underlying the victimization being portrayed are the apparently numerous times he got backstage with famous bands due to his father's work. And, apparently he had a roof over his head, food to eat, and parents who took him places. Yes, he had some mean friends and embarrassing incidents. This happens to everyone in some form at school or between kids. True childhood trauma is experienced by millions of children with none of the First World advantages David Wilcock had. Many children experience far worse trauma, such as being raped, or being mentally, emotionally, or physically abused at the hands of their own family.

If I was reading the hard copy of the book, I could just skip over the childhood details and get to the Ascension Mysteries stuff. But, it's harder to skip around with an audio book. I want to return this book. I'll never get back my time, and it's very hard to forget some of the "Too Much Information" shared that I wish I never knew about the author.

All this childhood stuff that just wasted my day could have been summed up in one paragraph. And, then we could have all just moved on.

Wasn't there an editor to wisely suggest that all this childhood stuff be cut out?

Yes. I'll return the audio book. Maybe the hard copy will be the way to finish this one.

A remarkable and unique document

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I have been a fan of David Wilcock's for a while. Watching him online, I have found him to be sincere, intelligent, and a have a unique and entertaining way of telling some of the weirdest and most surprising information out there. The book spends the first half of the book or so covering his childhood and young adulthood before getting into detail with the surprising "insider" information, documenting an interesting childhood peppered with pretty amazing mystical experiences, and a goodly amount of abuse. Being just a few years older than he, I can relate to the many historical references he makes—to Watergate, Iran Contra, and so on. He does not merely mention them, but the psychological effect such events had on him, and he feels, to the society at large. (He calls America at that time a "nuclear suicide cult"—numbed out, and seeking to remain that way. I can relate.)I am about halfway though the second half now, and being rewarded with an organized and specific telling of large amounts of "insider" testimony, credibly laid out, chapter by chapter. Although on his programs he gives much of the sense of this, in the book he succeeds in laying it out in more comprehensive detail, which is very satisfying.

Any additional comments?

I love David's sincere and animated narration of his own work.

Be patient with the insanely long backstory

Once you get past the excruciating detail of his past events, there is some really great information to be found.

Awesome audio!!!

Chapters 14 on are very fascinating and cover the subjects David is known for. The 1st half of the book is on his life as an intelligent unpopular bullied kid. He is clearly an indigo child raised by an Indigo Mother too. Was great, I'm going back to listen to chapters 14 on again. Thank you David, for releasing this current material prior to disclosure. Bravo 👏🏼

Fascinating character

My first impression of David was through his appearance on Ancient Aliens. It just seemed as though there was a sizable ego there. As I listened to his book, his childhood reveals a boy that was bullied constantly and the pain of growing up through his parents divorce. His subsequent pot addiction, LSD trips, and harrowing drug adventures with friends allowed him to hit bottom and have a spiritual revelation that molded him into who he is today.

He really is fascinating and well, fun to listen to. He is full of life and the desire for truth. It's a bit contagious and I couldn't stop listening to it. Once past his childhood, the book goes on to move us through the possible origins of man, our government secret space programs and what his vision of our future and ascension means to your soul. Enjoy the ride! You just never know.

Worthwhile & Well Done

Groundbreaking information delivered with lively, well-paced narration by the author. Great to listen to while reading the text from the book.

Worth the time

Definitely worth the time once you get past the terribly boring personal history of a terribly mundane past.

Great book however, politics seem skewed.

Loved the book very much. David's performance as narrater is superb.
The story, and information is fantastic.

My only problem with it is the political slant. Several instances in the book seem to refer to the cabal (bad guys), as being the political right, as (George Bush) is vilified several times.

I would like to point out that the political left, (Barak Obama) are the ones that want to control the guns, and limit access to same. They also control the Main Stream Media, and Teaching Professionals, including 99% of College professors. Dividing us, racially, morally and religiously is their agenda. I suggest the cabal description, fits the left like a glove.


The NRA backs the right David, not the left. Otherwise you, your knowledge, books, and speaking ability are second to none imho.
