" Was a little unhappy with this author and his lack of explanation for the young ward. He seemed to open a very interesting door there, and unless I missed quite a big piece, never explains her existence (SPOILER ALERT) what is she?? Someone tell me pls. The rest of the story is quite captivating, I like the duality of the brothers, keeps you guessing…but was not a “whole” book…could have been much more complete. "

" An excellent read as are all the novels in the Pendergast series. The characters are excellent, the story is a page turner, and the archaeology behind the story interesting and fun. I would read the other books in this series before reading this one (Relic, Reliquary, The Cabinet of Curiosities,Still Life with Crows, Brimstone, Dance of Death) before reading this one. "

" The book jumps each chapter from one setting to another and the writing style changes too. Even though the premise was interesting and so was the detail, I found the jumping about distracting. "

" Good story. A little hard to believe at times. This is part of a series and it might have been better to read the others first. There was some weird stuff about the characters that wasn't really explained in this novel. I'll probably try reading one of the earlier ones. "

" Great fun- quick and interesting facts thrown in throughout. This is first in a trilogy, but most of the characters are in previous and future books. I recommend reading all three in this trilogy (at least) to learn the history of the characters. "

" This was a good book but not as good as Cabinet of Curiosities by the same authors. The story line wasn't very believable. However it is worth reading if you like the Cabinet of Curiosities. "

" After waiting a year to find a copy of this book, it was totally worth the wait. I think Agent Pendergast is a fantastic character and this book revealed some interesting facts about his background I never would have expected. Preston and Child make a great writing team.

" I found it to be a bit too jumpy for my tastes. Miss one little, minuscule detail and you could be lost for the rest of the book. Additionally the slightly paranormal-ness of the Pendergast family was simply odd.

" Last in the Diogenes trilogy, a stong ending. The guts of the story were great, glued to your seat. But it seemed to lack at the end. Everything was tied up, and you didn't feel cheated. But it just didn't seem up to their usual work. Events at the museum were extraordinary.

" I really liked this one. Some parts were very intense. I thought it would be about Egypt, but it isn't, just the setting in a recreated tomb in a museum. But it was still a good read.

" Murder mysteries are not usually my genre, but I did find this book interesting. A mix of CIA/psychological thriller with some rare cultural and literary references, the storyline was interesting and fast-moving, though definitely got a bit macabre for my taste.

" Weer een geweldig verhaal van dit schrijversduo. De ondertussen gekende personages in de Pendergast-boeken maken hier wel wat mee! Ik vond het wel goed in mekaar gestoken.
