Summary: If you want the true reality of who we are, read this book!
Review: In short, I was raised catholic, and always wondered why the stories in the bible were so twisted. You know that it (the bible) was changed, don't you? Read Genesis again and AGAIN, further more read this book. "Let US make man in OUR image, and OUR likeness" hmmm, who were "US", sure, sure...the holy trinity, believe what you want, or you can just go burn someone at the stake for being a heathen, lol. Lies, Lies, and Lies! "God" is one such lie, not the being, the word! Its "ELOHIM" not "GOD", B'NAI ELOHIM to be precise. Try this too, read about the "Nephilim" in Genesis, and you will be scratchin your head. Ask a Rabbi to translate them for you, then get your copy of "Divine Encounters" It will change your life.

Summary: A good case for the ancient astronaut theory
Review: In the 1970s, von Daniken presented the "ancient astronaut theory" or what has also been called the "Gods from outer space theory"--that what ancient man called "Gods" were really visiting being from outer space--supporting this view from an interpretation of ancient myths, legends, religious texts, and ancient monuments and artificats.
Zecharia Sitchin falls into this line of thought. He is known for his series of books on the 12th planet--where he claims a planet beyond Pluto orbits our sun and is inhabited by a race called in the Sumerian legends as the Annunaki, who genetically engineered homo sapiens here on Earth to be slaves.(Adamu means primitive worker accoring to Sitchin, and doesn't Adamu seem similiar to the name Adam?)
But this book--Divine Encounters--I think sort of stands outside the 12th Planet series. This book mainly focuses on the encounters human have had, as recorded in ancient legends and The Old Testament, with what has been traditionally cosidered to be supernatural beings like angels, but Sitchin interprets as encoutners with extra-terrestials.
For example, if they were angels, why would some of them be offered and accept food from their human hosts?
One part I found interesting was the section on the Biblical character Noah, who Sitchin all but says is a product of genetic engineering done by the extra-terrestrials. It is observed the Noah, as an infant, had unusual eyes. And, is not one of the interesting physical features of the drawings and reports of space aliens are their eyes?
It is by bringing out details in these stories, details that we have overlooked, that Sitchin makes the case for his thesis.
I found this book to be an interesting read and in some ways better than some of the books in his 12th Planet series.

Summary: Difficult
Review: Mr Sitchin's books provide an alternative world-view that is difficult at times to accept. The 12th Planet and the Lost Realms in my opinion are the best of the lot. This book is a real reach and I had extreme difficulty accepting its premise that angels are emissaries from another physical world. Perhaps if the premise were supported by scientific findings rather than strictly and purely biblical and ancients stories I'd be moved to look more seriously into the thesis. However I think Sitchin could use more work on this book to convince the average reader that angels are aliens from another planet.Sorry Mr Sitchin , I hope the Cosmis Code is more convincing than this and I trust the work is in keeping with the first and fourth books of your Earth Chronicles - a thoroughly delightful and entertaining series of books.

Summary: riiiiiiiiiiiiight
Review: Oh--the Tower of Babel was a spaceport and Noah was clued in by aliens who sat up in a spaceship while the world was flooded. Now it all becomes SO clear. The best thing about Sitchen's....er..."work" is that I always sleep great after reading it. I always sleep best after a good laugh. Some original ideas and probably a nugget of uncommon truth here and there, but this is otherwise one of the most ridiculous books I've ever read.

Summary: Response to "A Reader in St. Louis, MO/USA"
Review: Why do you assume that Nibiru has to orbit "the sun?" What if Nibiru has its own internal heat source? What if Nibiru has its own sun? The truth is that Planet Earth is probably unique in the universe; therefore, can you consider that Nibiru is also unique in its own way and that just because it is different from our Earth, i.e., its 3,600 year orbit, doesn't mean the planet doesn't exist or that it doesn't support lifeforms. Mr. Sitchin asks that we not limit our thinking; if we remove the limits from our thinking processes, we will realize that ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE, not just US! Zecharia Sitchin has shown us more of our real history than any other contemporary author. I applaud him for his courage in writing this and his other "Earth Chronicles" books.

Summary: Mind-boggling! Paradigm-shattering! Indispensable!
Review: You've read the orthodox, conventional, sanitized view of the past. Now read linguist and scholar Zecharia Sitchin for the rest of the story. Only he provides a framework in which all becomes intelligible.
