This is a Tutankhamen experience, 7 Jan 2002
For an armchair Tutankhamun experience this book is brilliant. Nicholas has crafted a book that takes the reader, photograph-by-photograph, illustration-by-illustration through the family history, the Valley of the Kings and the treasures discovered. For the Tutankhamun reader this book is the reference work for getting a visual impression of that relation, that funery pit, that adze, in fact, an Alladin's Cave of information, lavishly illustrated. I constantly refer to this companion to check out references in other books. The casual reader can go as far as they wish because the illustrations keep pulling you in deeper and deeper. If you intend visiting the Valley of the Kings and the Cairo museum this is one book you should have at your side.

The Ultimate Tutankhamun !!, 30 May 2005
This book is simply fanatastic ! The best book about Tutankhamun around - it is the most complete study of his life, his times, his world. You must buy it because there is no other book on the subject that even compares with it ! Enough information and photographs to keep you going for years ! I bought it five years ago and I am still referring to it...

Great king, great book., 27 Jun 2003
This is a hive of information about Tutankhaten, or how he became Tutankhamun, beautiful pictures, it makes a fantastic reference to the boy King, you somewhat feel saddened for him, his life was not so easy, it's all the beautiful pictures depicted centuries ago, especially the ones with him, and Ankhanasamun (his young wife), they were very much in love, it's a moving reference book.
