"This was a lot of fun and a very quick read. The illustration is well done and the panels often reveal little treats for the observant reader. There's even a little social critique. Well worth the time you'll need to read it, and perhaps revisit it later."
"While the plot is a little loose and the ending kind of vague, the scenes in this graphic novel are terrific and the art is gorgeous. This is sort of gem you find on a bookshelf one day and are instantly entranced by."
"Utterly charming graphic novel of the light-headed romance between the mummy of Imhotep IV and the daughter of the egyptologist who purchased him. The dialogue is exceptionally witty, and the story rather absurd, but it's huge fun."
"This was a slightly odd little graphic work from Sfar, whose books I usually love (like Vampire loves). Unfortunately, there was no context for having mummies who lived in Victorian England and could suddenly be alive after being preserved for 3000 years. It was an interesting premise, but wasn't executed that well."
