Customer Reviews

Great blend of science and fantasy.

I really enjoy this book. The blend of science (underwater archaeology) and fantasy (Atlantis) is extremely well done. It's an easy story to read, but improves each time it's revisited. If you've got children (especially boys), who resist reading, this book could well change their opinion.

My Mother is the Author

My mother is the author of this book. She has written a sequel, "Merlin's Legacy", which we are working on getting published. If you liked this book, please add your review. We have obtained the rights to King Tut's Gameboard and are having 300 more copies printed.

One of my favorites

Our family is one of energetically avid readers and this book remains one of our favorites! It is an easy and thoroughly enjoyable book that's storyline about Ancient Egypt and modern finds is really well done. I read it as a pre-teen and continue to read it to my son. It is a subtley intriguing and satisfying read. It's a pity Ms. Ellerby didn't write other stories, I am sure they would have been as fascinating. I am SO glad to hear Ms. Ellerby wrote another book (see review by her daughter)!!!! I'm waiting to buy it! Thank you. As for the copyright for the book- wouldn't a movie based on the book be WONDERFUL?! Certainly intriguing!

It was the best book I ever read.

Anyone who is interested in Ancient Egypt should definitly read this book. I think that was Ms. Ellerby's theory of how Egypt got to be such an advanced civilization. The book is about two kids who make an amazing discovery by looking very closly at a game piece in a museum.Everybody in my family has read it and loved it. If you don't get something it explains it at the end of hte book.
