German Book Blurb (from Goodreads):
Als Rufus die
Eingangshalle der Akademie betritt, beginnt für ihn ein aufregendes
Abenteuer! Das altehrwürdige Gebäude ist gefüllt mit den rätselhaftesten
Fundstücken aus der Vergangenheit. Was hatte es mit diesen Scherben,
Fetzen und Bruchstücken auf sich? Und warum wurden hier an der Akademie
neben "Ausgestorbene Sprachen" und "Antike Schwertkunde" auch seltsam
klingende Fächer wie "Gesetzmäßigkeiten der Fluten" oder "Seltene
Anschwemmungsartefakte" unterrichtet? Artefakte - was sollte das
überhaupt sein? Rufus, Fili und No sind dem Geheimnis auf der Spur - und
schon bald durchströmen längst vergessene Szenen aus der Zeit der
Pharaonen die Akademie.
My Review
I found this book really creative and original. Basically it is about 12 year old kids traveling into the past to retrieve an ancient artifact. It was amazing how the author conveyed feelings so well. I really liked how he described things so well so that you can picture it, but not so much that it becomes boring. And then the action and adventure creates suspense and the plot setting is also really good. I personally like history, so this book was interesting, because I can compare what I know about Egyptians to what he is describing in the book. The author makes everything seem so realistic and you really get into the story.
I really liked No, he was an interesting character and he just has a likeable personality, everybody becomes friend with him.
Fili is another case. She is fun and logical in comparison to No. She is a loyal friend and I think that Fili was my favourite character out of all.
This was an amazing book and I will give it 5 out of 5 stars!
