The detail, the history, the edge-of-your-seat story telling and a most excellent character in Jeremy Logan make this impossible to put down. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Excellent Read *by M***T on Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2023* I’ve read 4 books in this series thus far and this is by far the best. If you enjoyed book 1 and 2 then you’ll love this one. It can also be read as a stand alone. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth Reading! *by M***R on Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2014* This was an enjoyable book, although not quite what I expected. An archaeological expedition is attempting to locate the tomb of an ancient Pharaoh in hopes of recovering a fabled crown. In order to accomplish this, a team of experts in varying fields are assembled, including the book’s protagonist, Dr. Jeremy Logan, a renowned enigmaoligist (loved his profession).The search is orchestrated in the middle of a repugnant swampy river of rotting vegetation and muck called The Sudd (which is so brilliantly described by the author, it becomes a character in itself).I’m a fan of Mr. Child’s coauthored Pendergast novels with Douglas Preston and I’ve loved most of his solo efforts, especially Terminal Freeze which was a scary, riveting read and still an all-time favorite of mine. I was hoping The Third Gate would give me that same creepy, anxious feeling of suspense as Terminal Freeze, but I found a good portion of it to be plodding. The premise is certainly interesting, but it took so long for anything to actually happen, and then when it did, the incidents were a bit of a let-down. I guess I was expecting more of the team dealing with the curse as their numbers were whittled away. The first half of the book is mostly comprised of set-up for the action at the end.It’s obvious a lot of thought and creativity went into this novel, and the writing reflects that. I wasn’t sold on the ending, but the entire premise is still spinning around in my head a day later, so I guess that’s a good sign.This was a decent novel, just not the breathless, fast-paced read I was expecting. It’s more focused on science than thrills. The Egyptology thread is riveting and the dots are well-connected, if fantastical. I have no problem suspending belief when I pick up a novel by Mr. Child -- I fully expect to be transported to areas of thought and credence not normally embraced – but prefer the rush of breathless suspense to crossed T’s and dotted I’s.One of the pitfalls of being such a successful author is fan expectation. We anticipate a home run every time. The Third Gate was more like a triple play for me, but I’m certainly glad I spent the time within its pages. I look forward to the next release from Mr. Child, and consider myself a fan for life! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/8578956-the-third-gate-a-novel](https://www.desertcart.at/products/8578956-the-third-gate-a-novel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
