Reviewed by Katelyn Hensel for Readers' Favorite

I am so glad that I read Axiom: A Jar for Tog. Long having been interested in history and mythology and the way the two intersect, I viewed William Fleck's approach to the mysteries of the pyramids with hopeful curiosity, as I am always game to know more about the fascinating Egyptians. I was definitely not disappointed. From passages taken directly from Egyptian mythology to archaeological texts and translations, there is a wide body of evidence used to explore the mysteries of the pyramids.

Math was never my strong point in school. Thus, the mathematical-heavy ideas did tend to slip my understanding at times, but Fleck always managed to explain points in a way that, at least upon re-reading, I was able to manage to decipher. I feel like he was able to really examine the lesser asked questions regarding the pyramids and round out his speculations with facts and references that really hammer his point home.

Although Axiom: A Jar for Tog is relatively short, clocking in at only 100 pages, that did not detract from the thoughtfulness and depth of information that William Fleck has managed to pack into so few pages. I left this experience with a better concept of why and how the pyramids were built, but also with several questions still bopping around my head, which made me even more curious and willing to investigate on my own. If a book can encourage more reading, it's a winner in my opinion!
