"I love Elizabeth Peters' Amelia Peabody series but have read or listened to all but the last book so I decided to try the Vicki Bliss series. I'd listened to one and hadn't really liked it, but decided to give it another chance. I'm glad I did since this book was quite entertaining."

    " Liked this one better than the first Vicky Bliss book. Hope that John Smythe makes a reappearance in future books. I love Elizabeth Peters style of writing and can't believe that it has taken me this long to read this series!! "

    " #2 for Vicky Bliss--naturally, we want to like Vicky, and a part of us does, but another part of us prefers the short, curvaceous, dark-haired Amelia.... "

    " A great mystery that was much more action-packed and interesting than the first one in this series. However, I don't think I could classify it as "amazing" so no 5/5. "

    " A book for those nostalgic for Rider Haggard novels. A fun read, but not the best of the Vicky Bliss series. It does have some good throw-away lines. "

    " John Smith did you say your name was? Vain, cowardly, thief who's way over his head dealing with some pretty nasty characters? I may just have to stick around for the next five books. "

    " Ah, that's more like it. A great improvement over the first book. Definitely meant to be taken lightly with enough mystery to keep interest up. "

    " Nice book - light reading. It makes you feel like watching an old episode of Moonlighting with Bruce Willis and Cybil Shepard. Looking forward to reading the rest of the series as the relationship between Vicky and John develops. "

    " A fun follow-up to Borrower of the Night, and an enjoyable audio version. The focus is really more on the characters than it is on the mystery, and everything is slightly wacky and over-the-top. Just what I'm looking for in my fluff reading. "

    " Did I already mention I love Vicky Bliss? "When I find myself in times of trouble, Vicky Bliss does come to me, speaking words of wisdom....doing a little b&e, save a few lives, and sleep with the hot theif with the heart of gold." (Ms. Peters do you mind if I picture Cary Elwes?) "

    " As with the first book, this second Vicky Bliss book continues to be the Scooby Doo type mystery that is easy to read for some simple reading when you have nothing more important to read. I will probably continue the series, but only when I have nothing else available to read on my list. "
