Title: and the point was...?
Review: it's amazing how well written back cover copy can get someone to pick up a book and give it a read. Such was the case with this book, whose deceptive description packaged it as some thrilling adventure story of lost treasures with magical powers. Granted there were some treasures with supposed powers but thrilling this was not, in fact it was quite dull, no action, no traversing the globe for our "hero", no anything. Even at the bargain price you should just skip it.
