"I've read the whole series and have enjoyed them for an entertaining fast read. Unfortunately, this one fell flat. A friend loaned me the next one in the series so I'll give it a try and hope it's back to the level of the earlier books."
"The penultimate novel of the Amelia Peabody series. Very good. Reminiscent of the first couple of books, curses, attacks, and action from the beginning to end."
"I read this book on audio - Amanda Peabody is such an amusing character that no matter what happens in the story line the reader will enjoy it. I thought the ending went a little muddy - it begins to seem as though everyone in the book, outside Peabody's immediate family, is guilty and of course, no one is right. I would recommend reading the earlier titles in this series first to get the characters backgrounds."
