Enjoyed this one immensely. Set in a very formidable, if not embellished, place that is constantly changing. All the curses & bizarre happenings. It's The Mummy with a HUGE twist. Defintely worth the time to read this one! I gave it a 5 out of 5 stars.

This book was okay. I keep persisting with Lincoln Child and Douglas Preston's books...but they write better as a team...It is definitely a beach read. Light and quick.

The well-crafted writing and pretty good characters that I rely on this author for combine here with ancient Egyptian mysteries and modern high tech to create a page-turning thriller. It's not perfect or even original; there are plenty of plot holes, stereotypes, and supernatural nonsense that anyone who has seen a "Mummy" movie or two will recognize, but it's an entertaining and fun summer read.
