Ancient Death Was Absolutely Unhinged — The Absolutely Unhinged Series, Book 2

Nobody in the ancient world just died.

You were drained, salted, wrapped, chanted over, sealed behind a false door, and handed a map so you wouldn't get lost in the underworld. If you were important, your servants came with you. If you were a cat in Egypt, there's a fair chance you were mummified by the million and later sold as fertilizer to English farmers.

Ancient Death Was Absolutely Unhinged is the second book in the Absolutely Unhinged series — a fast-moving tour of the strangest rituals humans ever invented for the one thing that happens to all of us. Inside you'll find the real embalming recipe (three price tiers, Herodotus took notes), the actual curse inscriptions carved by Old Kingdom tomb owners, the "Mummy's Curse" newspapers manufactured after Tutankhamun, the frozen tattooed horsemen of Siberia, the bog men of Denmark, the Viking funeral an Arab diplomat watched in horror, the Inca kings who kept ruling after death, and the Europeans who ate ground-up mummy as medicine.

Over 400 strange but true facts. Where historians disagree, the book says so. Where a story is myth, it's labeled myth — because the truth here is already unbelievable.

Warning: you will never look at a jar the same way again.
