review 1: I first saw this book in a bookstore where it was on sale. Immediately I was drawn to it as I'm a big fan of Ancient Egypt and fantasy in books. But the first time I couldn't get past the first 70 pages. A few month later I picked it up again and this time I managed to finish it. The pacing was a bit slow for me and the main character a bit odd at times. But I still really enjoyed reading it. It had a nice flow and I like the way the author included fantasy. The plot twist at the end was a nice touch as well.
review 2: Was undecided whether to give this book two stars or three, but as this is the first book I've read of the historical/adventure/mystery fiction genre, I've nothing to measure it against. The first thing I'd say is that its long, too long really.
... moreI was reading it on the kobo reading app, not realising that the physical paperback edition was 560 pages! I like fiction to be between 300 and 400 pages, but that's just personal preference. The good parts were very good, the not-so-good parts became a bit tiresome and somewhat implausible. Overall it was okay but nothing spectacular. less

Well, I am skeptical, just like Oliver, but Learner's sorcery stories almost made me belive

Did enjoy this book, but it could have been a lot shorter, a bit long winded
