Anyone remember this Newton Honorary book set in ancient Egypt? I just finished reading it. It was a good read.
However, as it was set in ancient Egypt, I often had difficulty forming pictures in my mind as to what was happening. Much of the story happens at either the goldsmith or stonecutter's shop where Ranofer, the protagonist is apprenticed. And he doesn't find the goblet until the second half of the story.
But other than that, it was a good read.
