"Why do i read these books ? They are so low brow ! You know what is going to happen .It is all so very unlikely but I still read them .Maybe it is just being set in Luxor that is enough for me I would return every year !"
"Starting to read a series at book #17 is bound to cause confusion and some lapses of concentration, however this was a delightful listen on audiobook. The author clearly knows Egyptology -- it is more than just a backdrop to the series; the different dynasties and tombs figure prominently in this work that is set in Egypt's very early 1920s and follows a family of modern-thinking British Egyptologists, headed by Amelia Peabody, as they solve murders. For fans of Agatha Christie, especially. Again, not-to-be-missed on audiobook, which is expertly narrated by Barbara Rosenblat."
"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."
