Egyptology: Search for the Tomb of Osiris by Emily Sands

3.0

This book has some beautiful illustrations in it, and a lot of the interactive features - such as fold-out diagrams and booklets of hieroglyphics - make it really enjoyable to read. This book would be perfect if it went more for the facts and less for the spooky-disappearing-expedition vibe, because if that part's truth is questionable, then I'm naturally going to question the "facts" about Egypt that I'm reading. I think that the interactive, highly visual nature of this book would be well applied to a purely factual book, because let's face it, learning is a lot more fun when it's so stunningly visual as well.
