Full of inaccuracies

I'm surprised that this Nat Geo-associated production, written by Dr. Zahi Hawass, would be both so unacademic and full of inaccurate information. It even contradicts some of Dr. Hawass' established/published opinions.

not long enough for the money

I thought it was very interesting but I don't feel like I got my money's worth for the $9 I paid for it.

It was just ok

There are much better books out there on Tutankhamun. There was a lot of "I think" or "I feel" statements in this book. I would not have added it to my library if it were not part of the Plus Catalog.
