Pyramids

When college student Tom Scheffler agrees to care for the luxury Chicago apartment of his great-uncle Montgomery Chapel, he soon realizes that traveler Chapel’s apartment contains more than a priceless collection of exquisite Egyptian artifacts.

Editorial Reviews

A light, but not frivolous tale of ancient Egypt and time travel. … a science-fiction adventure of time travel … The writing is typical of Fred Saberhagen: unpretentious, conventional, and easy to read. Focus is on story … Saberhagen's characters are one reason for my five-star rating. He devotes thought to each of them, they distinguish themselves, and their convincing personalities help the book's unbelievable concepts become believable.

Recommends it for: sci/fi fans, time travel fans, Saberhagen buffs
I believe that Saberhagen wrote two Pilgrim books. (Pyramids, After The Fact) This one is a neat take on archaeology, Egypt, time travel, parallel universes and the like. Well worth tracking down if you are a time travel/parallel universe fan, or a Saberhagen fan.

goodreads - John Reviewer

Time travel adventure by a master! "Add to this the time police, and a refugee who has re-created an entire alternate Egypt for plundering, and you have a Machiavellian time travel adventure novel with captures and escapes and everything imaginable"
