Story
We've been taught that North and South America were empty of humans until around 13,000 years ago - amongst the last great landmasses on earth to have been settled by our ancestors. But new discoveries have radically reshaped this long-established picture and we know now that the Americas were first peopled more than 130,000 years ago - many tens of thousands of years before human settlements became established elsewhere.

Story
The fate of the Lost Ark of the Covenant is one of the great historical mysteries of all time. The Bible contains hundreds of references to the Ark's power, but the Ark itself mysteriously disappears from recorded history sometime after the building of the Temple of Solomon. After 10 years of searching through the dusty archives of Europe and the Middle East, Graham Hancock has succeeded where scores of others have failed. This intrepid journalist has tracked down the true story behind the myths and legends - revealing where the Ark is today, how it got there, and why it remains hidden.

A few loose ends.
In the first 2 books so much intrigue was made of Pepio and his struggles. His forced transition from young Paige to Warrior, from boy to man. He became somewhat the protagonist in his own right. Yet in this book, it felt like Graham strung him along out of sheer continuation, with only minor character development. It was still an enjoyable listen, but I was left with wanting more. The battle descriptions in the end felt far-fetched and overall I hope this is not the last book in the series.

Story within a parable.
There is a deeper truth here revealed in the history based narrative of this series. One which concerns the nature of perception and the exhausting wheel of ego driven history. It is no surprise that Graham conceived of this telling with insights gleemed from many Ayahuasca ceremonies.

Fantastic story telling
I thoroughly enjoyed this trilogy, the story telling was amazing.
The way that Graham Hancock managed to perfectly blend history with fiction was absolutely awesome.
I got so attached to so many of the characters that I felt sad when I finished the third book.
These three books gave me a lot of knowledge about the history of that epoch in a way that I wouldn't have been able to just by reading into history books.
I also found myself googling a lot of the information and characters of the story, great stuff.
Thank you Graham for writing and publishing this trilogy and specially publishing it on Audible.
I must also applaud Barnaby Edwards for narrating this story so well, only a true professional can successfully perform so many different characters.
I most definitely recommend this trilogy.

The last war god book, still good
I have listened to the first 2 books in this series and gave a well deserved 5 star rating. I have dropped this to 4 stars on this occasion. It is not the case that Hancock has ran out of steam in his superb story telling. In fact, Hancock, who is better known as a factual writer, demonstrates yet again his incredible ability as a story teller. Had it not been for his interest in researching new theories that challenge historical conventional wisdoms (sometimes with a little welcomed controversy), I suggest that Hancock could have possibly become one of the all time greats in story telling. But I suspect this was a side project to his main quests in life. Barnaby Edwards, as normal, is a very accomplished narrator, to the point that I picked out a couple of other books also narrated by himself. However, Edwards definitely immersed himself in connecting with the characters and storyline, enabling him to vary the intensity of his narration at the appropriate sections in the book. What I was a little disappointed in was that there were clear opportunities towards the end of the book to use the very well developed characters to bring together many different events to incredible conclusions. Alas, whilst the ending had some exciting scenes, I was left with many questions as to why some characters had been so carefully crafted only to have no end that was fitting. Maybe this was deliberate and was meant to encourage your own interpretation or even look into some actual historical research. But to myself, the end of this book should have brought twists and intrigue that makes a reader sad that all 3 books were finally finished. This was not the case and maybe the slightest hint of an anti-climax brought about by several loose ends. There is no indication of a 4th book in the series. Hancock I believe is now 70 and for most of his life has travelled the globe analysing ancient structures and the significance of why these challenge the standard paradigm. His knowledge on many disciplines including archaeology, astronomy, astrology, mathematics that can be applied to monuments such as the pyramids makes him one of the most accomplished minds capable of bringing together scientific disciplines and bridging the insular beliefs of distinct scientific communities. He endure terms such as pseudoscientist which is ironic considering the breadth of knowledge. The world needs people like Hancock to champion the progression of knowledge through open minded research, but also as an intelligent writer who can write such incredible epics that will keep you riveted for hours.
