Under the direction of famed explorer Porter Stone, an archaeological team is secretly attempting to locate the tomb of an ancient pharaoh who was unlike any other in history.

Stone believes he has found the burial chamber of King Narmer, the near mythical god- king who united upper and lower Egypt in 3200 B.C., and the archaeologist has reason to believe that the greatest prize of all--Narmer's crown--might be buried with him. No crown of an Egyptian king has ever been discovered, and Narmer's is the elusive «double» crown of the two Egypts, supposedly pos.sessed of awesome powers.

The dig itself is located in one of the most forbidding places on earth--the Sudd, a nearly impassable swamp in north.ern Sudan. Amid the nightmarish, disorienting tangle of mud and dead vegetation, a series of harrowing and inexpli.cable occurrences are causing people on the expedition to fear a centuries- old curse. With a monumental discovery in reach, Professor Jeremy Logan is brought onto the project to investigate. What he finds will raise new questions . . . and alarm.

In the hands of master storyteller Lincoln Child, The Third Gate breaks new ground and introduces a fascinating new protagonist to the thriller world.

I love Lincoln Child and Douglas Preston :)
This is the first one I've found in a long time that I haven't all ready read :?:

I guess you watch movies where as I read books huh? :)

I've read some good books, but yes, I usually watch movies instead.

What kind of books do you like to read? Anything in particular?

There's not a particular genre. It depends on how well it written... whether or not it captures me. But I haven't really read in years now. Not that I couldn't again. Funny how some themes you're drawn to, like Ancient Egypt, may be good, and may not be. I see that you go a lot by authors you know. I think most people do, too. I would pick a book by the title, cover, and brief on the inside, and take a chance on the author. Kinda like the way I used to select LP's back in the day. :laugh:

    It depends for me, if I can find a new one by someone I like then yes I'll get it ...
    Otherwise I'm like you, just have to go by the brief :)
