The Lost Book of Enki (Earth Chronicles #6.25)
In his previous works Sitchin compiled the complete story of the Anunnaki's impact on human civilization from fragments scattered throughout Sumerian, Akkadian, Babylonian, Assyrian, Hittite, Egyptian, Canaanite, and Hebrew sources. Missing from these accounts, however, was the perspective of the Anunnaki themselves. What was life like on their own planet? What motives propelled them to settle on Earth - and what drove them from their new home? Convinced of the existence of an actual autobiography of Enki - a lost book that held the answers to these questions - the author began his search for evidence. Through exhaustive research of primary sources, and using actual discovered portions of the ancient text as "scaffolding," he has here re-created the memoirs of Enki, the leader of these first "astronauts." What takes shape is the story that begins on another world, a story of mounting tensions, survival dangers and royal succession rivalries, and sophisticated scientific knowledge concerning human origins that is only today being confirmed. An epic tale of gods and men unfolds that parallels the Bible and may challenge every assumption we hold about our past and our future.
An eminent Orientalist and Biblical scholar, Zecharia Sitchin is distinquished by his ability to read Sumerian clay tablets and other ancient texts. He is a graduate of the University of London and worked as a journalist and editor in Israel for many years.

Amazing! As I read this book, everything just made sense!
Weird. It hurt to read. I'm out.
Great story line. InterestingA great sideline story of earth' beginnings. True or not, it clarifies many questions raised by evolutionist and creationist. Worth reading.
This made me physically sick. I felt my mind expand as I went through it. It goes towards everything ever written, connecting all the great first civilizations and most meaningful markers of the story of men, allowing us to make sense of it for the first time. I have been reading the bible for fun at the same time as Sitchin's books and they meet and translate everything in there. This book is history, is religion, is science. I'm only sorry no one gave me this to read as a kid.
Lord Enki sets a task for Endubsar to take note of his words, this task will take 40 days and 40 nights, funnily enough that is exactly how long it feels it has took me to read this book.I've had a slight interest in the Sumerians since I was about 13 or 14 and read Sepulchre by James Herbert, over the past 12 months I've watched countless documentaries on them, the Anunnaki and the planet Nibiru so I decided it was time to delve into the books, I kind of get the feeling this was a poor choice
All I can say is Wow! Keep an open mind. Another reviewer said it was about time science and religion come together. I totally agree!

Chronicle Supposing Books The Lost Book of Enki (Earth Chronicles #6.25)
Will the past become our future? Is humankind destined to repeat the events that occurred on another planet, far away from Earth? Zecharia Sitchin's bestselling series The Earth Chronicles provided humanity's side of the story concerning our origins at the hands of the Anunnaki, "those who from heaven to earth came." In The Lost Book of Enki we now view this saga from the perspective of Lord Enki, an Anunnaki leader revered in antiquity as a god, who tells the story of these extraterrestrials' arrival on Earth from the planet Nibiru.In his previous works Sitchin compiled the complete story of the Anunnaki's impact on human civilization from fragments scattered throughout Sumerian, Akkadian, Babylonian, Assyrian, Hittite, Egyptian, Canaanite, and Hebrew sources. Missing from these accounts, however, was the perspective of the Anunnaki themselves. What was life like on their own planet?

"In every religion and belief-system there's a part of truth hidden!" "You just have to think & decide / discern which is the truth..and which is not!" Are these prophesies? The past? Just a delusions of a man? Read for yourself.. and make an opinion only afterwards!Amazing! As I read this book, everything just made sense!
