The Mummy

Everyone is familiar with Interview With The Vampire by Anne Rice, thanks to the movie.  Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Antonio Banderas - very few passed up the chance to feast their eyes on that flick.  It was a good story, too, I am sure.  Never one to follow hype, I never had an inkling to read Anne Rice novels, until now.  The Mummy, Or Ramses the Damned, is a captivating story of 20th Century England combined with Egypt, Ramses the Great and Cleopatra.  It is a rollicking story that keeps your attention to the very end.  If you have not read Anne Rice novels, or if you have only read the Vampire Chronicles, it is time to expand your horizons.
