Before we come to the details regarding the publication, reviews, and success of the book, it is necessary to write a few lines about the novel "The Egypt Game." The story is focused on the central character April Hall. She happens to be an eleven years old girl, quite lonely and insecure. At the beginning of the story, she comes to live with her grandmother. To her surprise, she becomes friends with her neighbor Melanie Ross. Both of them have a shared but an unusual interest in knowing more about ancient Egypt. They are quite intelligent and innovative. They work on their vivid imaginations and develop and elaborate game "Egypt." As the time progresses, their game becomes more and more real and they begin to really live that game. Suddenly, a few incidents take place in the neighbors. Those incidents shock and frighten the neighbors. The children, playing that game, wonder whether their game has really gone too far.
