Decent book, I really enjoyed the setting and the location of the book but the characters were just middle of the road and I didn't really feel anything for any of them, they were all just pretty cliched, I reckon that if I would have been in the mood to get it read in a few days I may have enjoyed it more but the fact that it has took me 5 weeks annoyed me.

Anyway I'm moving onto this next



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? 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.
I've been delving into the history of the Sumerians and it's fucking fascinating, how they knew the shit they did and how fast their culture evolved is unfathomable.

It's well worth looking into the Anunnaki and the planet Niburu if you are bored and fancy wasting a few hours.
David Icke looks into a lot of that and seems to cover similar sources. It is very interesting and no more far out than what you find in the Bible. Yet Icke is deemed a nut and the Pope gets prime time on TV. Go figure.
