内容説明
In this picture-cum-puzzle book, every picture is full of clues which are designed to lead to the whereabouts of Hamilton Hasp, an eccentric millionaire who has disappeared. The drawers of his Egyptian jukebox each contain objects from a specific geographical location and have a corresponding story from Hasp's life. Nick Bantock also wrote "Griffin and Sabine", "Sabine's Notebook" and "The Golden Mean".

I really wanted to solve the puzzles but they are too hard for me let alone my children. What a disappointment. But he story is ok and the drawers do look cool with the odds and end, yet not being able to do the puzzles sucks.

A fascinating, if not exactly stupefying, puzzle
2000/7/1
If you enjoy puzzles which carefully interweave illustration and prose, this is a good pick. The puzzle is challenging enough not to be boring, but it's not mind-numbingly hard like some others (notably Christopher Manson's "Maze," the only book of this genre I've liked better than this one). The illustrations are beautiful, and the aura of enigma created by the puzzle enticing. The only drawback I would cite is that once you make a certain intuitive leap in the puzzle's trickery, a bit of busy work lies before you to finish. But reaching that leap is reward enough. A good pick, if you can track it down.

WHY did I ever lend this book out?
2003/7/7
It was never returned, and I mourn its absence.
To me, The Egyptian Jukebox is the "Myst" of book puzzles. With a central theme that mixes Egyptology with Rock & Roll, woven together with intriguing little trinkets, cryptic narration, and a deceivingly simple riddle to solve ("Where do my worlds join?"), it will draw in anyone who ever dreamed of solving an ancient mystery or unearthing a lost treasure.
Many with short attention spans will discard The Egyptian Jukebox before long. There are no instructions explaining how to even begin. But if you are a creative thinker and problem solver (and perhaps just a little obsessive), this puzzle will be both amusing and rewarding. The solution will amuse you, but like a favorite novel, will leave you wishing that the book never came to an end.

PLEASE REPRINT THIS
2000/1/25
I have just entered the magical world of Nick Bantock and am just itching to read more. This book was listed on the cover of The Museum at Purgatory. I would love to help unravel the mystery. PLEASE REPRINT!
