Review Summary
The year is 2250 and the legendary Library of Knowledge has been discovered deep beneath the Giza Plateau in Egypt. The scrolls and tablets within promise to reveal the mysteries of the universe...but they also foretell of the necessity of a 'human-key' to fully unlock the secrets of the pyramids themselves. Believing this 'human-key' to be an ancient Pharaoh, modern scientists clone none other than King Tutankhamun. Before long, the realization dawns that the library contains information that parallels the biblical prophecies and modern man may have overstepped the delicate balance between God and nature.
Ruth Marie Davis, Resident Scholar
