Description

In LOST BOOK OF ENKI, we can view this saga from a different perspective through this richly conceived autobiographical account of Lord Enki, an Anunnaki god, who tells the story of these extraterrestrial' arrival on Earth from the 12th planet Nibiru.

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 a now lost book that formed the basis of ancient Sumerian texts holding the answers to these questions, the author began his search for evidence. Through exhaustive research of primary sources, he has here re-created tales as the memoirs of Enki, the leader of these first "astronauts
