Could be better... 6 Jan 2009
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Despite its title, this is more Clive Cussler than Dan Brown. It begins with an episode in the 5th century before placing us in the present day. So far so good. Only this prologue was never explained and only partially mentioned in the epilogue.

Daniel Knox is the main hero of the book, an archaelogist in Egypt, but Adams seeks to introduce us to all the characters at the beginning which I found a bit confusing as it kept jumping to different characters in different places, some of whom I couldn't remember.

By the middle, the story is underway, although Adams now heads off into Brown territory with theories about Gnostic heresies, along with various Pharaoahs & Moses, all told from a secular / historical perspective.

Fortunately, by the third part of the book, the pace and story pick up and it finishes well.

Overall, not as good as The Alexander Cipher, his first book.

I didn't think it was quite as good as the Alexander Cipher but a solid 3 stars as the story does move along at a good pace with excitement and good chase sequences. Yes sometimes the story does get bogged down in ancient History, and the various strands of the story don't hang together quite correctly. Having said that there is just enough character development to care what happens and the central characters are quite well drawn. The Egyptian settings, which are well described, action and pace of the narrative did make for an enjoyable read. Not quite a 4 star but a 3 and a half for this book.

I picked this book up to kill the time on a very long train journey. I had never heard of Will Adams before, but I thought it looked ok.

I have just finished it, and I have to say that I thoroughly enjoyed it. If only all my random purchases were this good! In common with other reviewers I found it reminiscent of Clive Cussler and Dan Brown, but that isn't a bad thing! The plot is fast and the characters likeable. I will definitely be reading Mr Adams' other books...

Hard work and poor characeterisation
Very complicated plot that moved around too much. It was difficult to relate to the main characters as the main 'baddy' seemed to change randomly throughout the story. Read more

Well, I liked it. Fast-moving, interesting kaleidoscope of plots all lurching together in a knock-out denouement, and best of all fascinating history. Read more
