This fascinating tale marks a milestone in world literature as being one of the first examples of the ‚mummy’s curse‘ narrative. It follows Paul Forsyth and the older professor Niles as they explore ancient Egyptian ruins, haplessly disturbing the ancient peace of a powerful sorceress‘ tomb. Upon his return home, Forsyth will present his young fiancee with an ancient souvenir from his travels, which unbeknown to him will have deathly consequences. It is a captivating and haunting tale, furthering Alcott’s work with the ‚femme fatale‘ narrative, in a story that is significant in world literature. This story is perfect for anyone who loved Brendan Fraser’s ‚The Mummy‘, just with a more serious, but equally enjoyable thrill.-
