I have always been curious about the theory of the Annunaki and this book does not disappoint though it is greatly detailed and some readers may find the material quite dry and hard to work through. The main premise is that a group of alien beings called the Annunaki came to Earth looking for gold to preserve their planet, and basically "hot wired" the human race by creating hybrid workers with Annunaki genes mixed with whatever hominid existed at the time. According to Zecharia Sitchin, the Annunaki were the ancient Gods of ancient Sumer and Babylon and intermarried with the resulting hybrid workers to create the human race of today. It is very obvious that Sitchin knows the material he is discussing; mainly Sumerian cuneiform and Mesopotamian iconography and his interpretation and hypothesis is interesting to say the least. Am I convinced? No, but I have to admit that it would be fascinating to find out DNA results of the bodies found in the Royal Tombs of Ur. I received a copy of this book from the publisher (thank you so much for your patience and allowing me to read such a fascinating book) via Netgalley for free in exchange for an honest review. ( ) I bought this book from an excess book seller on a whim for a very cheap price. I was curious. Unfortunately, I found its content too much at the fringe. Odd ideas. I could not determine any real historical context for the content presented. I stopped reading after about 20 pages. Lesson learned... read the available previews on Amazon. Same Sitchin drivel. Neat theories all aided by mistranslations and misappropriations. Then all unhelpful because there are no citations, so, you can't fact-check it. This is a mere recapitulation of his entire oeuvre, so nothing really new here, except a hastily added postscript which posits that the bodies found in the Royal Tombs of Ur by Leonard Woolley are still available for DNA testing. Since these royals were supposedly descendants of the gods that Sitchin says are extraterrestrials, they would be proof of his theory. I won't hold my breath for these tests...
