Summary: The Golden Goblet
Comment: The Golden Goblet is a book about a boy named Ranofer who lives with his older brother Gebu who has a secret that will change Ranofer's whole life. Ranofer has an okay life except for Gebu. Ranofer works at Rekh's goldhouse there he meets a boy named Heqet; they become very good friends. Gebu is a stonecutter and makes Ranofer work for him in the stonecutter's shop and that is where Ranofer learns about Gebu's secret. In my opinion, the theme is that your friends are like family and that you should always trust them no matter what happens in your life, just like Ranofer, Heqet and the Ancient. This book is good historical fiction because it is a good source and explanation of what Ancient Egypt was like and how the people were treated in that time period. I like it because it has good action and an extremely good plot line. This is also a good book because it helps you understand what ancient Egyptians had to deal with and felt. I think you should read it because you will also get involved in the life of the characters and ancient Egypt.. If you do read it I know you will enjoy it and want to read it over and over again. Once again you should read The Golden Goblet.

Summary: The Golden Goblet (It's one of the best books i've read!)
Comment: Looking for a really good book??? READ THE GOLDEN GOBLET!!!!!
I thought The Golden Goblet was an excellent book! Set in anicient Egyptian times, the book told a lot about the history of Egypt. Although the beginning of the story seemed like a drag to many people, I didn't think it was that bad, although it didn't explain a lot and didn't seem to be getting anywhere. The book actually started getting REALLY interesting, right at about the fourth chapter. If you are planning to read this book, give it a chance, and if you start getting bored at the second chapter, just keep reading, until after you finish the third chapter.
What I really didn't like about this book was that Ranofer, the main character seemed to be so secretive about lots of things, like the golden goblet, with his own friends! I thought that he should have told his own friends what he thought, so that they could somehow help him. If he had done this, he wouldn't have had so much trouble in the end, when he had problems with trying to catch his evil brother, Gebu, the stonecutter, and Gebu's friend Wenamon, the mason, while they tried to rob the tomb of a pharaoh and his wife, who had only died recently (in the story).
I thought that this book was an exceptional story, and it's good especially if you're studying about ancient Egypt (that's when I read it). So, have i convinced you that this story is REALLY REALLY good? (It is, SERIOUSLY) But the only way you can find out what a good book it is, is if you read it for yourself! I'm telling you, if you're looking for a good book, this is the one for the job!!!

Summary: The Golden Goblet
Comment: This book is a book many people would enjoy,
especially who love Egypt. I would give this book a 300 stars, but the stars only go up to five. It is about a boy named Ranofer. He has to live with Gebu his wicked half brother who is a tomb robber and stone cutter. The reason
Ranofer has to live with him because his father dies.
To read the book, just read the book!
