Destroyer from the Lost Planet: A Sci-Fi Adventure of Gods and Aliens
About this ebook
The power-hungry and much-despised Anzû, frustrated by the failure of his attack on a summit meeting attended by his Anunnaki foes, begins a campaign to drive a wedge between the Anunnaki and humankind. His devious plan is to persuade Ambassador David Schubert that Enki (half-brother to the Anunnaki king) has always been humanity’s enemy, and that David will need the immortality that Anzû can bestow in order to save the beloved Queen Inanna from an approaching celestial collision.
In the event of hostilities between the Anunnaki and Anzû, where Earth will be their battleground, it is clear to everyone that either side would be capable of destroying its enemy’s command-and-control by means of an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) that can be created by detonating a high capacity nuclear bomb at high altitude. As an EMP would confer a marked advantage upon the first side to use it, it is a highly destabilizing weapon. Anzû, having long seethed over ancient slights, is desperate to gain this advantage to wreak vengeance on those who he believes betrayed him.
As David struggles to avert a cataclysmic war, he learns of the Anunnaki lore of a “Destroyer” who, having defeated Anzû in ancient times, is destined to return and defeat him once again. With tensions rising on Earth, David and U.S. Navy Commander Catharine Weldon are dispatched on a diplomatic journey to the pyramidion of Enlil, King of Nibiru, where the Destroyer is believed to reside.
The Destroyer, long in love with the beautiful Queen Inanna, enters the fray at last. But even he cannot save the Anunnaki and humankind without David’s help, for no one but David can approach Anzû closely enough to defeat his destructive plans. With the Destroyer’s help — and with Earth in the balance — can David thwart Anzû’s plans for world domination?
Will David himself prove to be the new Destroyer?
