Murder of King Tut

No triathlon training yesterday.  It was filled with mowing lawns and a side of college work.  Which consumed the entirety of my day along with making dinner and such.  While I was mowing though I did finish a pretty great book on audio book. "The Murder of King Tut" by James Patterson.  I really enjoyed the way he bounced back and forth between 1300bc,1900ad, and the present.  The story was told from three different angles.  His angle in forming the idea and writing the book.  The Egyptologist who discovered the tomb of King Tut and his life.  And the life of King Tut and the events that led up to his rule and ultimately his tragic death.  James throws In his theories, based completely on research, on how King Tut was murdered.  It is a very convincing view that does line up with the facts.  Overall a great read. (or in my case a great listen.)
