Author's Note

A few things Paige Woods shouldn't have done: One, ditched the tour group in Hamunaptra with Alex. Two, stared too long at glowing hieroglyphics. Three, read said hieroglyphics despite not being able to understand them. Four, brought Imhotep back from the dead. Five, been recognized by the Creature. Six, allow any of the former to set off a chain of events that may lead to the end of the world. But when the O'Connells are involved, is the apocalypse ever NOT a possibility?
