Haha!

Thank you for your amusing comment.

I appreciate your kind words. Thank you so much for reading my review and commenting.

Psychic adventures, strange visions, paranormal happenings, and ancient tablets?! What an intriguing mix of entertaining elements. Thank you for providing such a thorough analysis of this one!

The cover didn’t make much more sense to me even after the great explanation!

This combination isn’t my cup of tea, but I loved the adventure of your review, Josephe-Anne!

I suppose the cover is geared towards readers who are familiar with the concepts of mythology, archeology, and mysticism/alchemy.

Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad you enjoyed reading my review.

This must be an interesting and adventurous read.. Thanks for a detailed review.

On a first sight, this book looks very appealing. I agree with you that the cover is interesting. Too bad that it had such flaws, especially the anticlimactic ending. That sort of spoils any book

I might just read this anyway, based on your review there are more good sides than bad sides in this book!

Thanks for a very detailed review!

This seems like an interesting, action-packed novel that I would enjoy. It certainly does sound like an Indiana Jones-type plot. Thanks for a great review!

I was really hoping for a more dramatic ending with some ancient secrets being revealed. But the rest of the book was entertaining.

Thank you for your response.

You're welcome. The archeology aspect instantly reminded me of Indiana Jones.

Thank you for your response.

I am an Indy fan, so this book tickled my fancy. But reading about the long stretches of nothing happening, the carnal scenes, and the lackluster ending dampened my interest.

That's a fine review you wrote, though.

Art collectors and the dangerous people in their line of business. I like stories with supernatural themes. Definitely gonna be a heck of an adventure. Nice review.

Things were happening between the action sequences, but they were dull, mundane things. Nevertheless, when the pace picked up, the story was enjoyable.

Thank you for the compliment.
