Resumen del Editor

Her name is Inanna. Spoiled granddaughter of King Anu of the planet Arra, she is more obsessed with being a queen on Earth than in saving Arra from a disaster set in motion by her malicious father, Morgoth. The feud between the Arkonian Morgoth and his Arran half-brother Ea, a deadly struggle for Anu's throne that began on Arra, continues after they arrive on Earth.

Promising to unite the feuding clans, Inanna marries Ea's son, Dumuzi, but her marriage is only a ruse to become queen. In the fierce battle of political brinksmanship that pushes both brothers toward war, Dumuzi is killed. She blames Ea's oldest son, Marduk. Inanna grieves, but not for Dumuzi. She mourns losing her one chance to be a queen.

To humor her, Anu agrees to make her Queen of the Indus, but only if she acquires the proper training. Determined to meet the test, she seduces Ea and then Anu, who keeps his promise. As queen, she builds a magnificent palace and finds the perfect consort, Sargon. But Sargon makes a fatal mistake. After he steals the sacred sword from Babylon, Marduk hounds Sargon to death.

Inanna now blames Marduk for the deaths of Dumuzi and Sargon. After a bloody rampage of war on Earth, and the utter destruction of the cities, Inanna returns to Arra. Anu promises to keep her confined to his palace on Arra, out of mischief. But does he? Or do her further brazen acts earn her the immortal title of "Queen of Vengeance"?

great book

great book that keeps you listening. the narrator has a beautiful soothing voice that is almost hypnotic

A must listen!

I loved the way the story flowed. Superb pronunciation and easy to clarify between characters. I finished Enki-Lord of Earth and as soon as I saw this sequel, I bought it and finished it in two sittings.

Very interesting

WOULD definitely recommend this book to anyone interested in Ancient times. I really enjoyed it

Good read and performance but.... is this rewritten text?

I’ll make this short and sweet. The story is good and the narration was excellent. There’s nothing to complain about there. However, the book leads you to believe that this is an ancient story or text when in fact it appears to be a modern revision of old text, possibly done to make it more appealing or understandable with our current understanding of technology. I have no idea how the original story reads but as it stands it’s easy to see how anyone can interpret this to be a science fiction novel when it may be the creative interpretation of an actual ancient story. I surely don’t know but the epilogue leads you into presuming these were actual events and the actions of these “ancient gods” who made earth their home many thousands of years ago continued to have consequences on mankind’s history onward for many millennia.

Regardless of what your personal take is regarding the authenticity of the source or it’s accuracy of interpretation, this was an entertaining read. If you are even remotely interested in the Ancient Aliens theory or something similar, you may enjoy this story .
