From Publishers Weekly

An ancient Egyptian scroll leads to a murderous treasure hunt in Smith's thriller, which was a PW bestseller for two weeks.
Copyright 1996 Reed Business Information, Inc. --Ce texte provient de la Mass Market Paperback édition.


From Library Journal

Noted Egyptologist Royan Al Simma escapes an attempt on her life, but her husband, Duraid, is not so lucky. This husband-and-wife archaeological team was immersed in unraveling the secrets of the "seventh scroll." Written in a type of shorthand, the scroll dates back to the Hyksos invasion of Egypt and was recently discovered in the tomb of Queen Lostris, whose story is told in Smith's River God (St. Martin's, 1994). Grieving over the loss of her husband, Royan engages Sir Nicholas Quenton-Harper, a wealthy English collector, to assist her in completing the work she and Duraid had begun by locating the tomb of Pharaoh Mamose the Eighth, husband of Lostris. Through collective teamwork, Royan and Nicholas travel to Ethiopia, at great peril to themselves, as they try to uncover a 4000-year-old secret. This well-crafted novel is full of adventure, tension, and intrigue. Recommended for general readers.?Maria A. Perez-Stable, Western Michigan Univ. Libs., Kalamazoo

4.0étoiles sur 5 The treasure hunt so many would crave......, Avril 9 2002
Par Vlad (Moscow, Russia) - Voir tous mes commentaires
This review is from: The Seventh Scroll (Mass Market Paperback)
This colourful sequel to Smith's other ancient Egypt novel "River God" is a gripping read, which has you turning the pages quite rapidly in expectation of what is coming. I read "River God" shortly before I read "The Seventh Scroll", and personally I would have to say I liked the first one more. I guess it was that fantastic beauty and drama that ancient Egypt holds, and Smith captured it beautifully. However, "The Seventh Scroll" is set in present day, and involves the beautiful half-Egyptian/half-English Royan Al-Simmau, whose joint findings with her husband Duraid, is on the scent of ancient egyptian funerary treasure hidden deep in the mountains of modern-day Ethiopia. What follows is an action packed race for the treasure, as Royan is in close competition with the formidable little German Gotthold Ernst Von Schillers, who will stop at nothing to claim the treasure as his own. A nail biting outcome really keeps the pages flying right up to the end of the surprising epilogue at the end. A MUST READ!!!

5.0étoiles sur 5 seventh scroll, Fév 11 2002
This review is from: The Seventh Scroll (Mass Market Paperback)
By now, I have read this book about 4 times which tells you how much I loved it. Smith has written a beautiful, adventerous story about love, greed, death and courage. It takes place in a few different places, starting in Egypt, moving its way to England and then to Ethiopia. Wilbur Smith created wonderful characters, both lovable and detestable. The basic plot of the story is that a tomb found in Egypt reveals seven scrolls, the last scroll containing cryptic clues to the burial site of an ancient king. Two people come together, one a woman from Egypt and a man from England, and struggle against the power and corruption of a lunatic multi-millionare to find the burial site and the treasures that lie within. After reading most of Smiths books to date, I have to say that this is one of my favourite. I really enjoyed this book. Read it; you will not be sorry.

3.0étoiles sur 5 Not the most interesting of the 3, Mai 14 2002

This review is from: The Seventh Scroll (Mass Market Paperback)
Tough going, especially after having read River God.
Plough through and then get Warlock.
You won't miss much by skipping this book, yet it does answer many of the lingering questions from River God.
In Smith's style it moves right along and has a great ending.
