 * Oh come on, how can there be no relation? The title and the plot (immortality) sound very similar... Duke Starhopper 19:37, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Is this possibly a source for the concept of the "Philosopher's Stone" in Hiromu Arakawa's Full Metal Alchemist? After all, Arakawa was a huge fan of Indiana Jones, and this Philosopher's Stone sounds very similar to the one in FMA (i.e. the ability to turn base lead into gold). They sound too similar to be coincidental. I feel that this ought to be looked into. 68.72.39.107 04:43, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

The synopsis seems a little… lacking.
I've never read the book, but the synopsis seems less like an informative overview, and more like a press release. Drakon467 (talk) 18:35, 9 July 2013 (UTC)
