The Curse of the Pharaohs: An Amelia Peabody Mystery Audiobook

" Mystery wasn't as interesting as the first book, but enjoyed the antics surrounding the Emerson's relationship. "

" aaahhh!! Ramses came into my life...I love him to pieces!! "

" Amusing, enjoyed the early marriage banter and competiveness. The who did it was too easy to guess even for Amelia and Emerson, this was more of how and why. "

" I thought this book started out a little slow and didn't pick up until right at the end. "

" The characters in Elizabeth Peters books are just wonderful. Each character has a tenacious and colorful personality which adds true vigor & vitality to each & every story by this author. LOVE THEM. If you like Indiana Jones, you will LOVE these books. "

" This was an entertaining mystery with plenty of twists to keep me guessing. It did strike me as rather verbose. My guess is they may be less wordy further into the series as it has continued quite some time. "

" I don't know what makes these books better - the delightfully well-written characters or the excellent narration. Either way, they're enjoyable to listen to. "

" Historical mystery. Very character driven. Witty, strong female narrator. "

" Revisiting Amelia & Co is wonderful, especially on audio with Barbara Rosenblatt's narration. This 2nd in the series introduces several characters who reappear later including Cyrus, Bastet & Kevin, and stars one of my favorite villains and murder methods. "

" This second book in the Amelia Peabody series is another nice read. The mystery is unexceptional, but the writing is smooth and Amelia's attitude is great fun. I'm looking forward to little Ramses joining Amelia & Emerson on their next adventure. "

" Thoroughly enjoyed this book. A light-hearted puzzle delivered with dry wit. "

" always enjoy these books. ready for the next one! "

" I have found a new book series to read from start to finish. Peabody!!! "

" A wonderful follow-up to Crocodile on the Sandbank "

" Second entry in Elizabeth Peter's Amelia Peabody series, which again sees the Victorian archaeologist - now married, and with a young kid - again back in Egypt, and again faced with a (seemingly) supernatural foe. "

" I absolutely ADORE this series. I think there are 18 books in this series and I want to read all of them. :D "

" Just not quite as good as the first book. I hope the next one is better. "

" ditto (a crocodile on the sandbank "

" I had a harder time keeping track of the characters in this book - it was not as interesting to me in terms of Egyptian archaeology or mystery. Even the romance/wars between Amelia and her husband was a little off. I think I will go back to reading some of the more recent works by Peters. "

" Another fun adventure with Amelia Peabody. Once again I thoroughly enjoyed the trip. "

" I'm loving this series. I like the dynamic relationship between Emerson and Peabody although I think Ramses is a bit obnoxious. Bastet adds to the flavor of the book and the setting - how can you go wrong with Egyptology as the background! "

" I've heard this a million times via audiobook on road trips. "

" I think it is a well written book with a great storyline. I liked it much better than the first one because she had a better handle on the characters which is to be expected. One again a great plot and memorable characters. "

" Just love the narrator on this one, she does the voices so well and the main character, Amelia Peabody is just a joy! "

" The books just get better. "

" Very good, keeps you reading. I love her humour too. "

" I think it is a well written book with a great storyline. I liked it much better than the first one because she had a better handle on the characters which is to be expected. One again a great plot and memorable characters. "

" I really enjoy these books the author has created very likeable majn characters and has a very dry sense of humour that comes accross really well in the writing "

" Good fun, although I think the best prose involves Ramses .... "

" Mystery wasn't as interesting as the first book, but enjoyed the antics surrounding the Emerson's relationship. "

" The second book in the Amelia Peabody series. We visited the Valley of the Kings shortly after I finished this and much of the geography rings true. It's an amusing, quick read.... "
