This is the story of Shepsenuré, the grave robber, son and grandson of thieves, and his son Nemenhat worthy as principal stem lineage, who dragged his eventful life on the roads of Egypt very different from what we used to know , where poverty and survival instinct led them to commit the worst crime a man could make in that land, grave robbing.

I have this book among the five best I've read. I've used it as a gift on many occasions with guaranteed success. I usually read once a year and dwell in the magical fantasy world that the author also describes to us and makes our imagination. Progress in reading is the love that exudes the author, his knowledge of the subject and the perfect scaffolding that has been prepared to develop it. The situations in context are perfectly plausible and highly strung together.
The fianl, apotheosis, worthy of the best strategist. If I could apply it to my boss and some other person, to see if you drop the smoke, thinking to eternity in perfect and harmonious solitude.
It would be nice to come to the cinema in place, so both mum and indy.
Congratulations.

Hello, thank you for this book that makes the imagination fly into the vast and exciting world of Egypt, from the first page to the last it keeps you "hooked" on it, I can not wait to read another of his other books.

I just read his book The grave robber and is excellent, it captivates you from the first page and immerses you in the incredible Egyptian culture. This book came into my hands thanks to Ana Luisa Velazquez Ramirez, a Mexican girl who studies and works in Spain and gave it to me now that was over here in Mexico and even the book is dedicated to me by you, which I appreciate greatly. I reiterate my admiration for this magnificent book that SA has now become one of my favoritos.Gracias
First of all congratulate each of the books he has written I have read his works are wonderful, but I admit that I feel genuine soft spot for "The grave robber" has held the position of my favorite book, I've lost count of the times I've read, I admire his way of describing the Egyptian landscape, and I really like atmosphere all, is a gripping story in which the reader can immerse yourself entirely in its pages and reach to imagine every scene with ease , also thank you can be as faithful as the history of this fascinating culture as it is very difficult to be faithful and to merge it with a wonderful story that hooks you from the first page.
A greeting and thanks.
Mr. Cabanas:
I have read "The grave-robber", and it was an amazing story, so well told and told, that got me to start enjoying every step of your pages, my comment at this time is to say that I started to read " The plot of Pharaoh "and so far I must say it is on track to haunt me like the previous book and I am pleased to express my comments in this way to finish it, I can read only at certain times because my job and my obligations as a parent and ma husband does not leave much time to enjoy reading, because when I read something so compelling I like to enjoy it, actually want to write a book and I can not sit for a minute to write if only the first words, you know good excuse my spelling and the way of my writing but I wanted to say hello and express my admiration for his works so good I hope to continue to be delighted with them.
thank you very much and greetings from the whole family Merlo
Hello: I am the mother of a "boy pharaoh" named Paul, who is enthusiastic about everything related to ancient Egypt. I, I must admit, it was nothing quite fond of and knew the subject. I was not going beyond the usual Pyramids and the Valley of the Kings. Now I only collect graphic information for the enjoyment of this power and Tutankhamun have come to feel the desire to know something more. What we are our children! I bought your book and I'm enjoying it a lot, is enjoyable and educational. I look forward to reading the plot of Pharaoh to continue in the line up that will last my son at least. A greeting.
I love the book, is one of the best I have read and I never tire of reading
A magnificent piece of literary art in our time. I was transported to a magical world to which I return again and again. At the finish, not closed and I missed the characters. Would somehow come to the big screen with the same vision of the author. Congratulations on writing a book that will be on my personal LIBRARY, if possible, forever.
Greetings.
Magnifico!!
It really is excellent this book is almost two years (if my accounts do not fail me) that I read it and be stunned!
I congratulate you for taking care of every detail in writing about the era.
Greetings.
antonio history thanks to you a hug from Argentina
Of the best books I've read of Egyptian historical novel (what more I read) and more coming from a countryman of my island, my proudest to read whenever I can. As I moved to the time in every word, every detail as intertwined, perfect descriptions of each character and each landscape. My form of escape (in addition to the bike and diving) in my time of studies in the race. I want to continue giving us much pleasure to stay immersed in such good reading.
I can only say THANK YOU
I already I have read a couple of times and each time I like, I'm also about "the plot of Pharaoh" is fantastic ....
One of the best books I've read
I've recently discovered thanks to a collection of those kiosk, and the truth that has been great
I had read books about Egypt from other authors, but this has been very good
What I loved is that the actors were ordinary people and that reflects very well the daily life in Pharaonic Egypt which I am a big fan ...
A book I recommend ..
I hope to read the others, whether they are as good as this occupy a special place in my library
Mr. Cabanas:
I read "The plot of Pharaoh", "The millennial dream" and "The Thief of graves." Although comparisons are odious, and like "The Name of the Rose" (for example) closer to "The grave robber." It is the best book I've read by far, I consider it a masterpiece. I do not often recommend books to friends, but this is an exception. I will not bore you, but encouraged to keep writing this well.
Thanks
Lei "The plot of Pharaoh" and is in love with Nefermaat and their experiences .. I am intrigued with "grave robbers" .. I want to know if I will leave with the same pleasant feeling of having read a good book ..
I consider myself a daytime lover of the greatest civilizations, is the Egyptian, "The grave-robber" has helped me understand the daily life of the Egyptian people, the book is so understandable for someone who has no knowledge about the culture and I thank the footers that makes reading more fluently and with greater fluidity.
I hope to finish the book and yearning to experience the magic in his next big success excised.
Garcias by the magical book he wrote and we hope many more that allow us to transport us to ancient Egypt.
My sincere congratulations on all your books.
The grave robber has the ability to transport you to the daily life of ancient Egypt as if you were really there, in fact, was "guilty" of my first trip to Egypt three years ago. I could not avoid and I have returned this year, if I may say again, because I believe that I never became completely from there.
Thanks, Antonio
Don Antonio,
