Many of the stories about AREA 51 mention that an alien mothership was found in a Groom Mountain Cavern with directions to the locations of nine smaller ships. The area was quarantined and labeled top secret with all information concerning the alien artifact run by a black-ops committee Majestic 12. Millennium ago aliens known as the Airlia came to earth and lived on the now destroyed island of Atlantis.
When the second wave of Airlia landed on earth, the two groups made war with each other with the humans who lived among them totally unaware of their presence. Now it is known that aliens walks among us and they are not friends of the humanity. Earth is devoting all of her resources to expel the invaders as well as a second alien the Swarm who harvest and destroy whole worlds. Mankind wants to be free to find it's own destiny and not be ruled by creatures that don't have our best interests at heart.
Many of the legends that been paced down through time including the Excalibur, Atlantis and the Holy Grail all have to do with the shadow war that the aliens have been fighting. AREA 51: THE TRUTH is loaded with action but short on characterizations as the character serve as symbols rather than three-dimensional people. Still those readers who enjoy an adrenaline rush of excitement will relish this story line. Robert Doherty adds to the myths surrounding Area 51.
