As we've seen in recent years, Tom DeLonge has his hands in many different projects, including some that are outside of the music industry. One of those projects, a new book titled Sekret Machines: GODS, now has a release date with the page-turner set to arrive on March 7 via To the Stars .... and Simon & Schuster.

DeLonge and co-author Peter Levenda take readers on an eye-opening investigative journey to the heart of the UFO phenomenon. The book features a foreword by renowned scientist and author Dr. Jacques Vallee. “When Tom Delonge asked me to introduce this book, which constitutes a bold re-examination of the meaning and nature of unexplained aerial phenomena, I felt at the same time honored and challenged by the opportunity he offered, because the field has reached a crossroads,” says Vallee. “The sightings have been ignored by academics, summarily brushed off by politicians, censored by churches, classified by the military and ridiculed by the media. Yet the reports continue to come. The experience of the unknown has only deepened, raising unsettling questions about the intrusion of the uncanny in our shiny modern world of convenient machines and superficial entertainment.”

According to a description of the book, Sekret Machines: GODS "is based on unprecedented access to officials at the highest levels of government, military and industrial agencies who have provided insights and assistance never before experienced by any researchers in this controversial field. GODS takes us beyond speculation to certain knowledge of what exactly lies at the heart of the most important Phenomenon ever to confront human understanding."

"The first volume in Gods, Man & War, GODS introduces the reader to some of the critical issues that are foundational to an intelligent and enlightened grasp of the revelations that will follow in the next two volumes," continues the book description. "There is another Force in the universe of our Reality, another context for comprehending what has been going on for millennia and especially in the last seventy years. Sekret Machines is the result of input from scientists, engineers, intelligence officers, and military officials -- a group we call the Advisors -- and transcends the speculation of journalists, historians and others whose conclusions are often either misinformed or only tease around the edges of the Sekret Machines. The reader will not discover wild theories or unfounded claims, but instead will confront a solid -- if often unsettling -- reality, one that demands the collaboration of all of us in every field of human endeavor if we are to understand it and manage its effects. If nothing else, readers will come to the conclusion that the Phenomenon is not what they think it is. It is, in fact, much more serious and potentially much more threatening than they can imagine."

"Sekret Machines: GODS is the opening salvo on the complacency of human institutions where the UFO Phenomenon is concerned," says Levenda. "It's designed to shake people up, to make them question their assumptions. This book is not only a new take on the Phenomenon -- by treating it as a given -- but a new approach to religion that takes a hard look at religious texts and ideas from around the world to discern the traces of an event that changed us forever. We live at a unique moment in history, when both our religions and our science are directed heavenward: when both the faithful and the scientists are mapping out the way to the stars."

"Peter Levenda is more than an academic and researcher, he's a gifted communicator," says DeLonge. "People will never know how much his early thoughts mattered in the Sekret Machines adventure. It was his ability to frame an esoteric thesis that gave me the ammunition to speak clearly on the subject matter, and that got me in the door."

As was alluded to, Sekret Machines is the title of a series of books, with Sekret Machines: Man and Sekret Machines: War expected to follow the Sekret Machines: GODS book. The books follow on the heels of Sekret Machines: Chasing Shadows, a best-selling fiction novel penned by DeLonge and AJ Hartley that was released last year.

In related news, on Feb. 25 at 5PM PT, Delonge, Levenda and Hartley will host a special Sekret Machines Q&A and signing at To The Stars headquarters in Encinitas, Calif. Admission is free with the purchase of the 2017 Sekret Machines Essentials Book Bundle. For addition info on the event, click here, and to pre-order your copy of Sekret Machines: GODS, check here.
