The Camelot Caper Audiobook

" The first non-Amelia Peabody book that I've read of Peters; very good. "

" Perfect airplane read; interesting as an example of early Peters. "

" Took a while to get into the story. This really is a "caper" with the good guys and the bad guys chasing each other all over England. "

" I've read this book about a million times. It isn't as good now as when I first read it, but it holds up okay. The main problem with the book is that it was written in the 70s and feels dated. Elizabeth Peters is a fun author though if you like romantic adventure with humor. "

" Not my favorite Elizabeth Peters, but a fun story. "

" A "road-trip caper" book, where an American in England falls into a strange plot and finds a cute Englishman to help her, as they speed all around southern and western England. Fast-paced and fun. "

" This is the first book I read by Elizabeth Peters. I read it back in the early 1970's, soon after it was published. I fell in love with the author and her humorous mysteries. I reread the book in 2000 and enjoyed just as much the second time. "

" 3 1/2. I'm about to go on a gothic romance kick, I do believe. You have been warned. "

" Pleasant, forgettable read. "

" I really did enjoy it. The hero of the story, David, was pretty fun. But overall it was kind of silly. "

" I was traveling and ran out of reading material....I found this book in the hotel lobby and I was desperate I read it! It is a modern gothic romance, or sorts...needed better proof reading for sure, it a fast, clean read! "

" A fun story of two running around English countryside with criminals after a supposed Camelot treasure. It's a fun read with a twisted plot. Lots of humor in the mystery with a touch of romance. "

" This doesn't have the same spark as the Amelia Peabody books, but it was a fun read. I really liked the character David. "

" The first chapters convey a really vivid description of the setting and a little bit of thrill but quarter way through the book, the thrill and excitement died out. The humor doesn't appeal to me. Stopped reading half way through. "

" A good fun read - exactly as titled 'a caper'. Reminded me a lot of Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey. "

" grumble grumble. if this had been better, it could have been like the movie charade. it wasn't. "

" I have been re-reading some Elizabeth Peters books and I liked this one so much more than I remember. Oddly enough, I liked "The Night of 400 Rabbits" much less than I remember. Maybe it is my age. "

" You don't know why the things that are happening are happening until the very end of the book, and then the end was hard for me to follow. Maybe it was just me.. But I just didnt like the ending very much either. "

" ok. quick fun read. love EP sense of humor. "

" This is my least favorite Elizabeth Peters/Barbara Michaels book. The first two-thirds of the book dragged on and on with little to hold my interest and the conclusion was just half-hearted. "

" Not the best Elizabeth Peters ever. Preposterous setup, inexplicable behavior of the protagonists (hell, inexplicable behavior on the part of the antagonists as well) Felt too much like she was trying to channel Mary Stewart, but her more modern heroine couldn't quite pull it off. "

" Enlish mystery story... a little slow but OK! "

" A fun story of two running around English countryside with criminals after a supposed Camelot treasure. It's a fun read with a twisted plot. Lots of humor in the mystery with a touch of romance. "

" Perfect airplane read; interesting as an example of early Peters. "

" Yes, it is the hunt for Camelot but I did not feel as though the book could decide if it wanted to be a comedy, romance or mystery. It switched in tone all over the place. Loved seeing England in my imagination. "

" A 'so-so' book with a flimsy plot. I adored the growing relationship between the two main characters but their 'adventure' together was lack lustre at best. Certainly not one of my favorite of Elizabeth Peters. "

" Normally i love all Elizabeth peters novels but this one was a so-so romantic mystery that was not so much predictable as far fetched. But it was written over 30 years ago so I am willing to give her, the author, some slack! "

" I've read this book about a million times. It isn't as good now as when I first read it, but it holds up okay. The main problem with the book is that it was written in the 70s and feels dated. Elizabeth Peters is a fun author though if you like romantic adventure with humor. "

" You don't know why the things that are happening are happening until the very end of the book, and then the end was hard for me to follow. Maybe it was just me.. But I just didnt like the ending very much either. "

" Is that James Smith from Vicky Bliss doing crazy illegal things in the background? Well now I really can't take you seriously as a villain. "

" ok. quick fun read. love EP sense of humor. "
