The Collector's Daughter: A Novel of the Discovery of Tutankhamun's Tomb by Gill Paul

5.0

This book was amazing, it was so well wrote that I was hooked from the very first chapter. I became totally engulfed in the story, as it is such a heart warming story and devastating in equal measures. There are so many twists in the story to keep you permanently on the edge of your seat. This page turning novel was just perfect and so factual I love learning history etc through fiction books. I really enjoyed the political element of this book concerning who has the right to keep the artifacts found on these sites and the controversy around this topic. I listened to the audio version and found that the narrator really added to the atmosphere and mystery of the book that I could not put down. The author wrote this book so well I know want to read more books by her as I binge read this book and I had it finished in no time. I'm really hoping this book gets made into a film as it would be perfect for the big screen. I thought it was great that the ending was so unexpected and the perfect way to end a book. I'm not going to tell you what happened for obvious reasons and I don't see the point in spoilers. So much praise to the author and publishing team for producing such a delightful story with such interesting novel full of history and culture.
