David Wilcock’s previous New York Times bestsellers, The Source Field Investigations and The Synchronicity Key , used cutting-edge alternative science to reveal oft-hidden truths about our universe. In The Ascension Mysteries , David takes us on a gripping personal journey that describes the secret cosmic battle between positive and negative happening every day, hidden in both the traumas of our own lives and the world’s headlines. Through his contact with a positive higher intelligence behind the UFO phenomenon, groundbreaking scientific information, and data from high-ranking government whistle-blowers, David reveals that the earth is now on the front lines of a battle that has been raging between positive and negative extraterrestrials for hundreds of thousands of years. The Ascension Mysteries explores the towering personal obstacles David overcame to unlock the great secrets of our universe and looks ahead to what this battle means for each of us personally. By unifying ancient texts from a variety of religions with scientific data and insider testimony, David presents a stunning conclusion—that Earth is on the verge of a massive cosmic event that will transform matter, energy, consciousness, and biological life as we now know it and will utterly defeat the great villains of our time.","forthcoming":false,"isbn13":"9781101984093","publication_date":"20170815","publisher":"Penguin Publishing Group","slug":"the-ascension-mysteries","subtitle":"Revealing the Cosmic Battle Between Good and Evil","title":"The Ascension Mysteries"},"discovery":{"categories":{"all":[{"bisac_code":"REL067010","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Angels & Demons","score":0.7306,"source":"bisac_hint_model"},{"bisac_code":"OCC011020","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Prayer & Healing","score":0.7287,"source":"bisac_hint_model"},{"bisac_code":"FIC028090","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Alien Contact","score":0.7283,"source":"bisac_hint_model"}],"hint":[{"bisac_code":"REL067010","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Angels & Demons","score":0.7306,"source":"bisac_hint_model"},{"bisac_code":"OCC011020","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Prayer & Healing","score":0.7287,"source":"bisac_hint_model"},{"bisac_code":"FIC028090","confidence_band":"medium","label":"Alien Contact","score":0.7283,"source":"bisac_hint_model"}],"publisher":[{"bisac_code":"OCC007000","confidence_band":"high","label":"ESP & Psychic Ability","score":1,"source":"onix_publisher_code"},{"bisac_code":"OCC025000","confidence_band":"high","label":"UFOs & Extraterrestrials","score":1,"source":"onix_publisher_code"},{"bisac_code":"OCC031000","confidence_band":"high","label":"Ancient Mysteries & Lost Knowledge","score":1,"source":"onix_publisher_code"}]},"genres":[{"label":"Angels & Demons","score":0.7306,"slug":"angels-demons"},{"label":"Prayer & Healing","score":0.7287,"slug":"prayer-healing"},{"label":"Alien Contact","score":0.7283,"slug":"alien-contact"}],"reader_fit":["Good for readers interested in cosmic and extraterrestrial mysteries","Readers intrigued by the intersection of science, spirituality, and ancient texts"],"related_lists":[],"series":null,"similar_books":[{"authors":["Elizabeth Bear"],"book_id":"9781534402997","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9781534402997.jpg?v=20260424T163327Z%3A2026-04-24T16%3A33%3A27Z","score":18.1182,"title":"Ancestral Night","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9781534402997"},{"authors":["Yume Kitasei","Katharine Chin","Macmillan Audio","& 0 more"],"book_id":"9781250875396","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9781250875396.jpg?v=20260424T163327Z%3A2026-04-24T16%3A33%3A27Z","score":18.0508,"title":"The Stardust Grail","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9781250875396"},{"authors":["Peter F.
