Doesn't maintain the excitement...
chclark-uk12 December 2016
I stumbled upon this documentary and was so excited to follow up on the questions that I asked myself throughout the book. Unfortunately I became tired with the continuous repetition of facts and editing for commercial breaks that I lost all interest in the mysteries it aims to unravel.

I've seen a great number of documentaries and this "TV show" is a great example of a show with potentially great content but how the execution doesn't live up to the information it provides. This is a rather American dinner-time TV show with forced enthusiasm and overexcited narrating.

Rather than providing a breakdown of the book's stunning mysteries and historic artefacts that create such enticing twists and turns, the programme simply treats the book like a 'ghost hunt' style programme which becomes pretty dull, pretty quickly.
