| Publisher Description: This book is the science fiction sequel to "Elohim: Ancient Science Fiction or Biblical God?" It explores what may have been and offers a glimpse at those who could soon be returning to Earth in our very near future. At the core of the facts presented within these chapters, lies a conundrum. There once existed an author who claimed to be the creator of the human race, and he wrote down his memoirs over 5,000 years ago. His tale evolved into many ancient religions. The question is, was he actually an alien being who came to Earth from another planet and wrote a truthful autobiography, or was his book a science fiction novel written by a mere mortal? Either scenario reveals a compelling reality: an ancient, pre-historic society once thrived on our planet that either rivaled or exceeded our modern achievements in science and space technology. There are many unanswered questions common to mankind: "Who or what is God?" and "Where did He come from?" The biblical book of Genesis states that God (written as "Elohim" in the original Hebrew) created the universe and all living things on our planet in six days. However, scientists now calculate that the universe has existed for around 13.8 billion years and that modern man evolved into Homo sapiens around 200,000 years ago. How can these conflicting ideas be reconciled?. An author who once claimed to be the creator of the human race wrote down his memoirs over 5,000 years ago. His tale evolved into many ancient religions and legends of deadly fire-breathing dragons. Was he actually an alien being who came to Earth from another planet, or a mere mortal? You decide. RECOMMENDED by the US Review of Books!! The following is an editorial review of "Elohim II" by Caroline Blaha-Black: "Anna, Tetu, and Elohim had been working together for eons and had advanced medical practices and technologies to levels that were formerly believed impossible, but restoring the broken body of Marduk back to life was something that could not yet be done, because of the way he died." The atmosphere of the planet Eris is slowly thinning, and Anu, King of Heaven, calls a council of elders. Gold must be brought from Earth in order to build underground cities and save the population of Eris known as the Anunna, an advanced civilization who created mankind. Anu appoints his first-born son, Elohim, as a king of Eris while he steps down. However, Baalthazar, also a son of Anu, feels that Elohim doesn't deserve the crown. Trouble ensues as some of the Anunna are sent to Earth in spaceships to collect a sufficient amount of gold and silver for the building operations. They manipulate the existing humanity to their own ends to obtain the metals, while Marduk, first-born son of Elohim, is executed by the Anunna on Earth based on a scheme created by Baalthazar. However, the Anunna have the technology to revive Marduk, and he is reborn as Immanuel, another name for Jesus of Nazareth. In this fascinating book, the author blends fact and fiction, while exploring the possibility that the humanity has been visited and influenced by aliens in the distant past, as referenced by the passages in the Bible and the Mahabharata, to name a few. He plays with the idea that there were once beings from another world who used their own DNA to create humanity. The story is fast-paced, and the plot keeps the reader glued to the page. The characters are well-fleshed out, and the reader can easily identify with the benevolent Anu, treacherous Baalthazar, or the wronged Marduk. The author's reference list is impressive, as is the way he intertwines fiction with factual information gleaned from his sources. This is a perfect book for lovers of science fiction. --The US Review of Books at https: //www.theusreview.com/reviews/Elohim-Barger-2.html |
