Anunnaki: Gods No More: 1
T**H
Very Disappointing & Naive...
It just doesn't cut the mustard for me...The majority of the content is okay, as it's a condensed summary of mainly Zecharia Sitchin's work, with the addition of a few other scholars works, such as Michael Tellinger.However, the author has blatantly not put enough of his own insight/research into the book, especially when Dr Lessin has an anthropology PhD (The book could be classed as a rip off to be fair!). As it seems that Dr Lessin has just taken all the juiciest bits out of mainly Sitchin's work, & glued it all together in some kind of chronological order, thus, it reads as a dairy, rather than a concise history of the Anunnaki. Don't get me wrong, I believe we will probably never get the exact true history of the Anunnaki, for obvious reasons, however from reading such works on the subject from authors like Lawrence Gardner, & Christian & Barbara Joy O'Brien, I think this book is severely lacking research, evidence & intellect...An annoying thing for me was how the author mentions on the back of the book & in the introduction that Sumerian "god"/Anunnaki royal, Nannar = Allah, the Muslim god, yet there is no other mention in the book about how & why he or Sitchin came to that conclusion, in fact, there is no other mention of it at all! And there's no explanation either for how the other Anunnaki royals are related to various other deities/gods that Lessin mentions. I think the author should have explained how he or Sitchin came to those conclusions, especially if he's going to accept & portray them as true.The worst part of the book is the poor quality; it's such a poorly produced book. For a start it's an A4 sized magazine, the pictures are taken from Google images, & so some of them are so dark & grainy that there is no point in them even being in the book (don't be fooled by the colour images on the "Look Inside" feature, as all images in this book are grainy black & white images from Google), & whoever did the proof-reading for the manuscript, definitely needs to go to Specsavers, that's if any proof-reading was done at all, as there are literally tons of typo's throughout the book...For example: At the bottom of page 127, "Then Abraham moved to block Nabu & his Earthlings armies advancing on the..." Then you turn the page & a new chapter starts! You don't get the end of the text!?!This book is only worth a read if you're looking for Zecharia Sitchin's basic story of the Anunnaki, but due to the lack of depth, authors insight, & the poor quality of the book, it's definitely not worth £11 quid!*Update... Google: "Sitchin is wrong", the first website you'll come across will put you straight about Zecharia Sitchin's work. I mention this as this book is mainly based on Sitchin's work, so it might not be the best book for researching the Anunnaki/Anannage/Anuna.

Love the cover on this book
Love the cover on this book. Fascinating reading even if you don't subscribe to the Anunnaki, Sitchin viewpoint.Dr. Lessin presents it in a more friendly way. Tons of illustrations to add to the story, well presented and thought provoking.
