Tome Thursday: Pyramid


Hello everyone!

So last week, if anyone remembers or if anyone read, I talked about David Gibbins and his underwater archaeology books. In a very brief summary of what I wrote then, basically, this is about a team gathered around Jack Howard, who globe-hop a lot and discover strange things left behind by our ancestors, whether this is Atlantis or a meteorite-fashioned swastika, it doesn't matter. Jack is joined in his endeavours by a lot of prominent members, notably Costas Kazantzakis, Maurice Hiebermeyer and his wife Aysha, his daughter Rebecca, and various females ranging from Spaniard Maria to Russian Katya.

Whew, that really was brief. Anyone else already feeling winded?

Anyway, last week, I talked all about the seventh book in the Jack Howard series, titled 'Pharaoh', and dealing with the hunt for Akhenaten, one of those Egyptian guys we really don't know that much about, and what we DO know is now being turned upside down by new discoveries.

History never sleeps, ladies and gentlemen.
