Wow, congratulations. Is it your first book translated?

Thanks, Neith! Yes, it is the first, and I'm already doing the next (or at least I should do it instead of surfing... internet can slow down work so effectively

Now I wish I knew how to speak Hungarian so I can read it.

lol Jamie you can read the original English

originals are always better than translations

...and the editor changed some things :evil:

I'll tell him I won't take it as a compliment...

I guess Anubis is the 3rd. The 4th is Slayers of Seth which I'm translating now.
It's not the best idea that 2 different people translate the 4 books of a series...

well it's pretty much a detective story set in Acient Egypt, and historically not always accurate

I tried to correct some mistakes but the editor wrote them back

Meritaton: Is your real name Anita? And, if that book's Hungarian translation is "A Hórusz gyilkosságok" I read it! So cool!!!

Wow, that's awesome! I could never have the patients to translate something that large scale!
