Was it just a case of the world not being ready for what he had to say and just calling it quits? Or was it because there was more money to be made in the technology sector? I'm with misteranderson- it would be great if he wrote some new non fiction. I think there are more people coming around to the Vallee way of viewing things and less and less of the nuts and bolts folks. Why’d he stop?

His journal book is a fun read as it ends with the CIA-UFO connection. When Vallee starts listing sightings and then comparing them to ancient sightings of other cultures -- shamanism basically -- or religious visions, etc. -- then I think there's a techno-spiritual projection by Vallee. He's basically a Freemason when it comes down to it. He may have helped design the internet but I doubt that it's making the world a better place. haha. It's too easy to project the West onto other cultures or just other personal psychological states and then combine that with science to justify technology which is inherently tied to the military. We have 20 years of water left. Aliens will not save us -- no matter how snazzy their abductions are, etc. But it sure is effective as CIA propaganda and has Vallee played into this? I think so with his conflation of nonwestern and western philosophy. Well Messengers of Deception is my favorite of his. His journal book is a fun read as it ends with the CIA-UFO connection.

But couldn't find the other two. Neat, I managed to find a copy of Confrontations earlier in the year in a used book shop. But couldn’t find the other two.

I've already read all of his books....I highly recommend them... That’s great news, but actually, I’d love him to write some new books. I’ve already read all of his books….I highly recommend them…
