The Lost Book of Enki: Memoirs and Prophecies of an Extraterrestrial god by Zecharia Sitchin
by Zecharia Sitchin. The biblical parallels are truly amazing considering these were written 4500 B.C.! You will learn who really built the pyramids (and why), how agriculture really started (and quite recently), why parallel cultures existed across the atlantic ocean in the 4th millenium, why the 'gods' lived thousands of years, how nuclear wars occured in the remote past, how the inner solar system was formed, and why the gods fate is intertwined with mankind's! Not to mention, on rereading this book, you may stumble onto some really great clues: like, where one should look to find Gilgamesh's lost "plant that makes the old man young"

This is an excellent novelization. Reading this book really allows the reader to be immersed in the entire world of the Dark Crystal. I loved experiencing the events of the movie in this excellent adaptation. Smith adds many dimensions to presenting the world of the Dark Crystal. While providing wonderful visual descriptions, there is also a strong attention to the sounds of the world. Sounds, from the Mystics nine chord chant, to the tones of the Crystal, Jen's pipe, Kira's song, and the sounds of the environment, fill the pages as their interrelationships are subtly described. I really can't say enough about this book.
