review 1: My review from Amazon:I love anything to do with the pyramids and Egyptology, so this book was right up my alley. The thing I loved about this book is there is never any down time, or parts that I felt the need to skim over. It moves at a fast pace and there is always something new happening. The adventure takes you from Egypt to various places on Earth, and even into outer space. A few parts are a bit far fetched, sometimes they find the clues they are looking for, which would seem like a needle in a haystack, way too fast but again, it didn't take away from the overall story for me.I liked Ben as the main character, and all of the secondary characters were just right. The author obviously did a lot of research and used a lot of imagination writing this book.For those peo... moreple who were complaining about the ending, I actually loved it. The author leaves it wide open for his sequel, which I anxiously await. It's a smart business plan, because that's what writing is really...a lot of movies and shows leave you with cliffhangers, and we all sit there speculating what will happen in the next season. The ending got me thinking, that's for sure. Because he is right, God and aliens and all the other theories he discusses have not been proved a fact, which leaves the mystery of his ending and the characters discovery wide open for the sequel.
review 2: I know a lot of people have given this book great reviews but I cannot agree. The story premise sounded so intriguing and exciting--a murder mystery, an archeology thriller, a little sci-fi, all the elements in a story I love to dig into... but the writing was so poor that the whole book just turned out to be a mess. The development of the main characters, Ben and Sam, was shallow to the point I could not feel any sympathy or involvement with them. This made it difficult for me to understand their increasingly absurd actions and further lent to the overall unbelievable aspects of the many contrived plots they faced.I found myself going from anxiously reading it to having to force myself to finish it. Then, after doing so, I found out that there really was no ending and the reader would have to buy the next book in the series to find out the outcome of the story! less

Book tended to tie things up very neatly with a bow on top.
