As of all of Sitchin's Books, it is wonderful and well researched, but my lack of a fifth star has to do with the Hard Cover Edition. I have to wonder why they would go with a new book binder on the last book. People buy the Hard cover edition because they like the series so much they want a "collector's edition". The previous books were well bound and looked sharp with the unique gold leaf image on the face of each book. In this final book, What a huge disappointment it was. The book looks like it belongs to a completely different collection. The spine and cover are different colors, no accompanied image on the cover, (just the book binders personal symbol, which makes it look that much more cheap!). Again, content great, but Very disappointed with The book binder and the person in charge of making such a poor choice for the final book of an otherwise wonderful collection.

I have thoroughly enjoyed this book as it is a must read for anyone who is concerned about the future.

Although I did not wish for the immediate End of Days while plowing through this book, I did fervently wish for the Day I reached the End of This Book, particularly since I don't know how much of it related to the End Times, a topic covered pretty much in the last 4 of its 16 chapters, and inconclusively at that. I've read, re-read, and enjoyed Book 1: The 12th Planet, as well as most of the other Earth Chronicle series, but this one was a chore. Most disappointing is that two critical issues are not really addressed: why did the Annunaki leave and why would they want to return. The fact that the gods were angered and disappointed with Mankind, hence left, doesn't hold much heft, since Mr Sitchin has pretty well established that the gods were angered and disappointed almost constantly after biologically engineering the race. And, why they would want to return to deal with a race of beings which, like California, proved ungovernable seems to be beyond explanation. I think Mr Sitchin had an excellent essay (the last 4 chapters) and got talked into padding it and turning it into a book.

If you are interested in Sitchin this is a good place to start. Some of his other material can be very involved and slow reading due to details of his travels that are mixed in.

Of course this is a challenging book because it is prohetic in nature. And prophecies interest people. Now, if you compare the books of Maximillien de Lafayette on the Anunnaki (he wrote more than 30 books on the Anunnaki) and the great work of Z. Sitchin, you will find a deep difference between the ideologies and sources. However, they converge on one fundamental issue, which is the origin of man. Sitchin is a novelist, Lafayette is a mystic Ulema.It is the same difference you find between an agnostic and a sufist.
