Thank you for a great review! It's a nice story about stolen artifact and recovery. t sounds a bit long and boring.

I always get extremely confused when someone insists that book from a series can also be read as a standalone. I mean there must be some reason author thought it should be part of something whole. At least I don't believe it is possible, so before I read first book I can't decide is it worth to read the second.

From the early part of the sample, I thought the story would be involving stolen paintings, so the tablet from The Epic of Gilgamesh was an interesting surprise. I like the descriptive text and this seems to be a good story for teenagers and adults, that like mysteries and ancient artifacts.

Initially, I thought this book is of religious genre. But it involves search for ancient artifact's, art history, romance and some mystery. Hope it'll be worth trying.
Thanks for the review.

The title of this book threw me off. I would never guess the genre being mystery thriller. It sounds like an interesting premise. I am not usually one to read books out of order. But I will check the sample and then decide. Great review.

I am not so much into art but I like the aspect of mystery in the novel. A good mystery novel is always appreciated. Thank you such an insightful review.

I'm not into art history and all, but this book has piqued my interest. The budding romance of Maro and Epiphany had me fascinated, even when there was not much romance in the sample of the book. The wariness that Epiphany showed towards her feelings for Maro made the story so much more interesting. Thanks for the thorough review.

A mystery thriller that mixes art, romance, espionage, and supernatural elements. The subject of artifacts stolen from the Baghdad Museum during the 2003 American invasion is interesting. It is the second book in the series but can be read stand-alone.

Wow, i do find the review speaking my mind here and there. Good job

.
Coming to the book itself, it's amazing how going through its prologue and first sample chapters one would think it is a movie already. Kinda reminds me of Jackie Chan's 2013 movie THE CHINESE ZODIAK, presumably that's where the author of 'The Key to Eternity' got the inspiration from... partly

.

Good job once again.✔

The sample of this book was interesting! I did not expect to encounter Epiphany's supernatural powers so early on in the book. Books that pertain to art are not that intriguing to me, so I will be passing. Congrats to the author on BOTD!

A book focused on retrieving art stolen during the war. Not much of my favorite genre but I guess reader who enjoy this genre with really enjoy this. Good review.

It seems like a great mystery book. The connection between the war in Baghdad and the seeking of holy relics seems like a great topic to explore and engage readers that would enjoy a good mystery book. Thanks for the insight!
