The Murder of King Tut: The Plot to Kill the Child King - A Nonfiction Thriller
by James Patterson, Martin Dugard
I'm so confused. This is supposed to be a "nonfiction" book about "unraveling the mystery" of King Tut's death. The conclusion, or the unraveling, is a mere sentence at the end of the book AND COMPLETE SPECULATION. Patterson actually goes on to claim that he knows exactly who killed the child king and why. This makes no sense. Wouldn't a professional author know the difference between fiction and nonfiction? The entire book is written like a fiction story, complete with conversations between the ancient Egyptians.
It wasn't a terrible book, but it was more of a fiction story for teenagers interested in knowing a little bit about King Tut. All the research Patterson claims to have put into this book is pretty much nonexistent.
