Review of 'La momie' on 'Goodreads'

A rich old archaeologist digs up the mummy of Ramses the Third, a former great king of Egypt and rumored immortal. Despite all the written warnings in the tomb, the archeologist takes the mummy to his home in England, where slowly but surely Ramses awakens from his 2000 year slumber. The inevitable happens as he falls in love with the archaeologists daughter, and eventually screws up.

The plot of this book is very stale, even a little disappointing. Part 1 is still sort of OK, but when the major events in Part 2 start happening, you just want to continually slap your forehead in disapproval. How can he be so stupid? Stupid stupid stupid!

The concept of immortality in this book is interesting - rather than being strong in the darkness as her vampires are, these immortals gain power from the sun and they ARE indestructible - not even fire …
