"Greenfield keeps the action fast-paced, seamlessly weaving in much
information about ancient Egypt, and the interactions among the
distinctive and delightful characters are hilarious. Horne's
elongated and exaggerated black-and-white illustrations add to the
fun. May Ra the Mighty (and friends) solve many more ancient
mysteries." —Kirkus Reviews
"Engaging and funny, this comically illustrated mystery mixes
ancient Egyptian history with clues and twists to create a
satisfying whodunit."—Booklist
"A charming and intellectually stimulating piece of anthropomorphic
historical fiction"—School Library Journal
