Book Rating
The fifth <i>Amelia Peabody</i> novel which, in a change of setting, actually takes place in and around London rather than Egypt (even though it still deals with Egyptology).

There's also a 2001 film called 'The Mummy Returns': having now read this, I can see more than a few parallels between that movie and this! British museum? Check. Historical(ish) setting? Check.

Classic 1980s fantasy movie, in which a Frenchman (Christopher Lambert) plays a Scot, a Scot (Sean Connery) plays an Egyptian by way of Spain and an American (Clancy Brown) plays the Russian villain (the Kurgan), all as immortal swordsmen who must duel down through the ages (only being killed when their head is separated from their neck) in search of the mysterious Prize.

Supported by a brilliant soundtrack by Queen - 'Who Wants to Live Forever' has to be amongst their best - and with the immortal line 'There Can Be Only One', leading to 6 sequels and a TV series!
