review 1: An interesting book.When I read the blurb I thought wow this is right up my bookshelf but when I was resing it it lost the wow factor, but did not disappoint.The leading man, Oliver is character that has something that every reader could relate to and his wife Isabella is someone that everyone will have in their lives, these characters mixed with the culture and landscape of Egypt is a great match and the storyline incorporates modern life with Ancient times beautifully. The attention to detail brings the story to life and helps the reader by giving history of culture and yet not drown you in long passages that can sometimes happen.I strongly reccommend that you give this book a try and stick with it though it is slow I was not left disappointed.
review 2: I lo... moreved this book! It was so fast to read, so absorbing which is great for a book in discount about which you had never heard and thought it would be okay.Isabella, an Italian archeoligist, is married with the English Oliver who seems to have a talent to discover oil. They live in Egypt but due to work in different places. Time is 1977, and we are in Alexandria.The life of Isabella, Oliver and many others will be influenced, controlled by a vey old artefact 'an astrarium'. Oliver isn't a believer but the astrarium will have more and more influence on his life and thoughts till it completely controls him. Enemies,mystery and time are all important in this wonderful story. less
