Title: Egyptologist=tedious
Product review: I actually began reading this book three seperate times. I'm not typically the type to not finish what I've started, but the dense prose and pompous voices of the characters were extremely off-putting. Some reviewers have said that they found the haughty nature of the characters amusing, but frankly it makes the characters unlikable. I'm even more upset by the reviews listed on the back of this book which exclaim it to be a "gripping tale" or an "engulfing detective story". Totally false on both counts! While I wouldn't say no to a refund, what I really want back is any brain space any memory of this story might be taking up.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
