Stoker, Bram: The Jewel of Seven Stars. v1, 25 Dec 2007

[tsgreer]

Lots of people consider this Bram Stoker novel to be just as good as his Dracula.

It tells of the consequences of being an archaeologist and messing with Egyptian tombs and the mummies that are found inside of them. Just a little curse to be wary of, but everyone knows that those are just superstitions. Right? Um...

From Amazon:
"Hither the Gods come not at any summons. The Nameless One has insulted them and is forever alone. Go not nigh, lest their vengeance wither you away!" The warning was inscribed on the entrance of the hidden tomb, forgotten for millennia in the sands of mystic Egypt. Then the archaeologists and grave robbers came in search of the fabled Jewel of Seven Stars, which they found clutched in the hand of the mummy.

Few heeded the ancient warning, until all who came in contact with the Jewel began to die in a mysterious and violent way--with the marks of a strangler around their neck.

I can't open this with the eBookwise Librarian

[tsgreer]

Hmmm, anyone else have this problem? It opens fine in my ebookwise emulator. I'll dig up my old ebookwise and see if I can find out what the problem is. I just upgraded to the latest OS X version of ebookwise ebook creator, so maybe it has something do with that.
