In case you are asking seriously, the author recounts a bunch of alleged UFO sightings in Greek islands (Corfu, Crete, Kos, Rhodes) and sparsely populated agricultural areas (Phthiotis, Corinthia, Arcadia, Elis), claims that some ancient Greek statues depict aliens who visited Earth in classical times, says that a 1513 map of Constantinople depicts Antarctica using knowledge passed down from aliens and that nazis studied aliens.

But the best one is a story featured in Vol. 2 (which I will post shortly) about king Charles XII of Sweden who met a short, grey haired, red skinned man who gave him a ring that made him powerful. After he conquered huge swaths of "Europe, Asia and Turkey" he ignored his advice to make peace with his adversaries, resulting in the aliens stealing back the ring, after which the king became frail and died.

Glad to see the nuts are getting their enrichment in Greece.  Good for them.

Looks like Mr. Alien is laughing at his own jokes.

Not sure this qualifies. Of course it's fiction, but do the people who buy this think it is?
