" This is a wonderful book IF you are interested in ancient Egypt or anthropology. Though a solid scholar and Egyptologist, Mertz makes this a fun read, sprinkling deliciously funny one-liners throughout. However, if you are not a fan of ancient history, don't bother. I, personally, love Egypt (ancient and modern), history, and anthropology. I found the book fascinating. "
