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.

Tome Thursday: Pharaoh

Hello everyone!

Back with my second blog of the week, this one about a book, and it wasn't really a difficult choice to pick considering it was the first one I grabbed during my vacation. The main reason behind this being that I wanted to read book number eight, but I had sort of forgotten what happens in book seven ... yes, it happens to me too, folks!

Especially since I took roughly forty new e-books with me, luckily only in electronic format or else I think my dad would have deposited me, books included, on the curb and drove on without us.

The book happens to be Pharaoh, written by David Gibbins, and as I've said it's book number seven in a series centering around an underwater archaeologist and his team, who do a lot of globe-hopping, history-discovering and general all-around interesting things.

Well, at least *I* find them interesting!
