Summary: Sitchin is BRILLIANT!
Review: Having read the TOP Four books in the UFO/Alien/ Government Coverup Genre; My FAVORITE is 'Alien Rapture' by Brad Steiger (Great fiction-soon to be a movie); and Alien Agenda by the best selling author of 'Crossfire' Jim Marrs (Best reference on UFOlogy); and Unconventional Flying Objects (NASA UFO Investigator for 30 years) by the scientist Dr. Paul Hill, and the 12th Planet by Sitchin. Sitchin's research is second to none. Read up on his credentials. I've read all of his books and this is the best!
So much impressed me that I can only mention a few major points. I found it fascinating how Enlil and Enki probably debated and reflected upon major ethical/moral/religious decisions such as the "genetic engineered creation" of homo sapiens when Enlil felt that Enki was "replacing the Father of All Beginning" (page l3l), and the issue of whether Weapons of Terror (nuclear bombs) should or should not have been used (page 316), causing the total destruction of the Sumarian civilization in 2023 B.C. (See Wars of Gods and Men, by Sitchin)
For people interested in the so-called "Face of Mars" or the human image on the sphinx, Sitchin , through the process of elimination, relates how the "reconstructed" tablets most likely yield the names of those images and how they came to be there! For Bible-oriented readers the "history" of Adapa and his sons Ka-in and Abael stands out as well as the "history" of Ziusudra and the Deluge, not to mention for students of Egypt how Marduk of Sumeria becomes Ra of Egypt and later on Amun, the Unseen One. And who built the pyramids and the sphinx and why? Well, I suggest you read Enki's probable account on pages 235-40. What fun! If you read this excellent book and the others, you will know that they are indeed true. Two well respected American Astronauts have come forward to proclaim they had seen evidence of the Roswell UFO crash and stated they know the cover-up is real. Many books have been written about the Catholic church's cover-up of ancient manuscripts. You be the judge.

Summary: I wish I could give this book ten stars, it's that important
Review: There are few true geniuses writing books we can understand and only one writing about a subject so vitally important to every human being, i.e., we cannot know where we are going if we do not know where we have come from. Now, thanks to a lifetime of dedication worthy of the greatest researchers and detectives of all time, all of Zecharia Sitchin's books and especially "The Lost Book of Enki," are available to provide plausable answers to the hundreds of questions traditional "science" and "archaeology" and biblical "scholars" cannot or refuse to answer at all, let alone satisfactorily.
I think I understand why some of his fans are having trouble with "The Lost Book of Enki." They think they understand his work to the point where having it all presented in one book, and in a mytho-poetic style, no less, seems to be a rehash of what they've read. Well, they may be geniuses, themselves, because I've read all of the books twice and am one of about two dozen alumni of all of Zecharia's far flung teaching intensives, and yet I feel that I needed to read "The Lost Book of Enki" to really have a good grasp of the material and to feel it "breathe," to be mytho-poetic, myself. What a thrill to finally understand the actual basis for the seemingly ungrounded words, themes, and stories of the bible. There are also a few facts mentioned in passing that should have blown the mind of anyone who has read all the books. It should be realized that NO ONE knows Zecharia's work the way he knows it and anyone who knows him realizes what a gift this book is to the many people who have literally begged him to put it all together in one book.
So, as they say to anyone considering the study of the Kabalah, make sure that you are ready to have all of your preconceived notions, especially those about the bible and our creation, seriously dislodged. If you want the ride of your life, then read on. I know my life would have been quite the poorer had I not read all of Zecharia's works, especially "The Lost Book of Enki."

Summary: The cost of answers is more questions, an LDS perspective
Review: While I find much of the material plausible I do have many questions that would be great to have addressed. I do consider this work suspect in many ways, but it does give the mind a great exercize while raising eyebrows and dropping the jaw. Coming from a LDS (Mormon) backgroud it's not a giant stretch to accept the notion that such beings could in fact be unwitting instruments in the hands of the "Father of All" to place upon yet another world souls of a new race of Man-kind, humans. Though they themselves near the end of the book conclude in retrospect this to be the case themselves even though they for selfish reasons fashioned us. God is obviously higher than these beings, but none-the-less, they served the role as "gods of men" as with mythological lore but likely they are not the God of mankind. I'm left wondering if Enlil could have been Jehova and Enki Lord or visa-versa. Wish it weren't so fuzzy in these distinctions. Perhaps if I could examine old testament texts in a more native dialect it may be possible to distinguish two personalities working with the children of Abraham in the name of the One God. It's very interesting to see how what the LDS refer to as the pre-existance and the "war in heaven" could in fact be accounted for in the behind the scenes actions among these celestial beings at the time of Sodom and Gomorrah when the "weapons of terror" were unleashed against the rebell Marduke. It's sobering to see the kinds of mistakes made by these "gods" if indeed they do represent the direct benevolent representation of the One God to humans. I'm inclined to concur with those who suspect ALL of these are fallen hosts from Heaven and in essence represent a fallable group of non-divine beings. It is also not too far of a stretch to presume the LDS concept of humans becoming gods is very likely a process much as these beings to the earth were and the manner in which they lived on their home planet with VERY high technology, historical understanding, etc. Perhaps the "lost sheep" are souls which need to be found and brought home as "prodigal sons". There is a striking parallel between what Marduke is up to and what the LDS refer to as Lucifer's agenda to usurp all power and dominion to himself, as well as promote himself as even greater and more ascended than the father Anu, king of their homeworld. Marduke made himself to be worshiped as Ra in Egypt and Ra means bright one, the sun. Lucifer is from the same root meaning as Luminous. It is also understood that Marduke received his period of time to rule the earth and mankind has been subjected to His dominance according to a pre-set time. Thus, we have a world leadership of evil where force has the mode of rule for millenia. We are now living in the days of the perfection of imperfection that when finally completed will last a mere brief moment until it's broken to pieces and Marduke's reign will be ended and the Christ return to earth to rule as it's rightful and benevolent king. Praise be to God for our deliverance! May we be prepared.
