The Lost Realms

Earth Chronicles Series, Book 4

By: Zecharia Sitchin

Narrated by: Stephen Bel Davies

In the 16th century, Spanish conquerors came to the New World in search of El Dorado, the fabled city of gold. Instead, they encountered inexplicable phenomena that have puzzled scholars and historians ever since: massive stone edifices constructed in the Earth's most inaccessible regions...great monuments forged with impossible skill and unknown tools...intricate carvings describing events and places half a world away.

Who were the bearded "gods of the golden wand" who had brought civilization to the Americas millennia before Columbus? Who were the giants whose sculpted stone heads in Mesoamerica still mystify to this day?

In this remarkably researched fourth volume of The Earth Chronicles, author and explorer Zecharia Sitchin uncovers the long-hidden secrets of the lost New World civilizations of the Olmecs, Aztecs, Mayas, and Incas and links the conquistadors' quest for El Dorado to the extraterrestrials who searched there for gold long before.

Amazing “read”

I have been reading the works of ZS in sequence and appreciating immensely. Dig in, it’s well worth it! On to the next!

History discussed in detail.

I enjoyed the connection between the historic literature and Biblical passages from each chapter. The chapters were eye opening and well organized that helped make and connect some logical conclusions.

yes

loved this , excellent and educating. (narrator pronounciation of foreign languages is challenging! ) otherwise highly reccommeded.

ancient lore research stitched together

I appreciate all this ancient lore translated, interpreted and codified in one set of volumes

On to book 5....

Good book. Gets one scratching their heads at points but with the listen... interesting to say the least

Brain and Balls

Finally, a man who had questions, studied throughout his life and put pieces of the world puzzle together. Why is everyone afraid, the church the govt losing control when it seems warring is in our genetic code.

Most importantly he was not afraid to present them in his books.

Surprisingly entertaining!

I began this thinking what more could possibly learned about bc life. Interesting evidence and hard facts make this a great read.

Relates the Americas to 'Biblical' and Middle East

Relates the Americas to 'Biblical' and Middle East history. I feel he did a good job relating them together in a fairly academic presentation. He often gives his research (and those who agree or parallel his research) then gives opposing views (often along with the oppositions source or research) and ends with his opinion. Of particular interest to me was the 'day without Sun' as recorded in the Americas corresponding to the 'biblical day with only Sun' (no night) in the Middle East. Also, fascinating opinions and research on the Olmecs with their 'white, bearded allies' (where they came from, what they were doing, and what happened to them. A decent read... but awesome at 2xSpeed while listening on Audible!

Written in stone and in the Bible

If you really think about this. What is written in stone is verified by the Bible.
How we lost all this information isn’t clear. Maybe after the Gods left Earth.
I recommend this book.

Outstanding

I feel deprived to have waited until in my adult life to have experienced the vast collection of ideas and knowledge accumulated by Sitchin in this series of books. Why were these readings not, at least, suggested by my teachers while studying world history in high school?
As for the performance, Stephen Bel Davies is a consummate artist. His dialogue is that of a slightly gossiping conversationalist, making what could have been a dry listening experience, instead, one that I have eagerly absorbed. Highly recommended
