First-reads book. 4 1/2 stars!! really enjoyed the book once I got into it. didn't want to put it down and go to work this morning. :-) One of the things I liked about this book was that I felt like I was there at Hathor and following along finding all those amazing sculptures and paintings. It was a magical world.

This book hooked me fro...more
