"'I’m reading this book at the moment and am very intrigued by it. It’s cleverly written and different from the norm. But I’ve come across the most amazing booboo and I cannot believe she didn’t get her facts straight on this:
“He arranged them on his table in the exact position of the pyramids in the Valley of the Kings”
“I took it when we were in Egypt, in the Valley of the Kings….she was standing next to one pyramid, with two others in the background”
If she’d bothered to read up about the place she describes she’d have found that there are no pyramids in the Valley of the Kings. They’re in Giza near Cairo, hundreds of miles away!'" |
