Book Reviews of The Amulet of Power (Lara Croft: Tomb Raider)
Book Review: Excellent novel, very thrilling
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is fantasitc. I picked it up in the store and began reading it immediately. And i haven't been able to put it down. Story-wise it feels like a cross between "The Mummy" and "Indiana Jones and Raiders of the Lost Ark". So the story is great. I don't want to spoil anything, but there's action, suspense, and even some humor. It suprisingly has funny moments here and there, so it definetly isn't predictable. Lara is also a great action hero who can hold her own against today's best. So if you're looking for a great book, this is one you should pick up. You won't regret it. ;)
