About this title: More than 3,000 years ago, a 19-year-old pharaoh died mysteriously and was hastily buried in a commoner's tomb. When that tomb was discovered in 1922, the most glorious royal Egyptian treasures were unearthed, and Tut's place in history was restored.

"very informative about Egypt and quick read makes You want to go to Egypt and see all the great Egyptian monuments/works gave me a feeling like I was there when all the events/people were happening/living"
"The fact that the most recent examinations of the King's body show Brier's thesis is most likely way way way off doesn't make the book any less enjoyable ... or Brier's thesis any less fun to think about. Good stuff."
"As mysterious as the subject matter within, is this book about King Tut that seemingly vanishes in and out of my life. Missing it currently is, but when available for reading, there is much to discover in it about ancient civilizations, and historic Egyptian Royalty. With the King Tut exhibit in Dallas this past spring, the title was timely. Little did I know that time would eventually claim my copy of The Murder of Tutankhamen as I attempted to finish it off (as it were)."
"I traveled to Egypt in 1996 and have since been fascinated by anything to do with King Tut, the pyramids, the tombs, etc. Bob Brier is a well-known Egyptoligist yet writes non-fiction like novels."
