Acerca de esta escucha

The irascible husband of Victorian Egyptologist Amelia Peabody demonstrates again why he has been nicknamed "Father of Curses." Denied permission to dig at the pyramids of Dahshoor, Emerson is awarded instead the "pyramids" of Mazghunah: countless mounds of rubble in the midst of nowhere. Nothing in this barren spot seems worthy of interest - until an antiquities dealer is murdered in his Cairo shop.

When a sinister Egyptian spotted at the crime scene turns up in Mazghunah, Amelia can't resist following his trail. There's a mysterious scrap of papyrus and a missing mummy case to investigate, while she keeps at least one eye on their precocious son Ramses and his Egyptian cat. But the digging turns truly dangerous when Amelia and Emerson look for answers in an ancient tomb - one that could become their grave.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Between Amelia Peabody and Indiana Jones, it's Amelia - in wit and daring - a landslide." ( New York Times Book Review)
"[Elizabeth Peters] scores again with a riotously witty, tense, and cunningly constructed tale." ( Publishers Weekly)
"Amelia Peabody Emerson, archaeologist extraodinaire, and arguably the most potent female force to hit Egypt since Cleopatra, is digging again!" ( Philadelphia Inquirer)

Enjoyable

Susan O’Malley is a pleasure to listen to! The story was interesting, but a bit confusing. The remarks and innuendos regarding Christians/Christianity were unnecessary.

I love Susan O'Malley's narration.

Elizabeth Peters writes a great story. but when the narrator adds too many embellishments like Barbara Rosenblatt, for me, I simply can't listen. it's just too much. But with Susan O'Malley her narration is calmer, still inventive and it still has personality but it doesn't add any hysteria to the portrayal. it's unfortunate that she only did six books.

Strange inserts in narration

I loved the story, but the narration had several places that sounded "pasted in", as if the dialogue had to change after the fact to fit some politically correct editing. The voice of the pasted in parts was lower and more mature, so it seemed it was recorded years later. I couldn't tell any difference in the story line, but the change in narration was a little irritating.

Another case solved in grand fashion

If you like series of the wife and husband team, then you will enjoy this book as well. Amelia and Emerson go from one archeologist site to another and always finds a murder mystery to uncover. Their son Ramsey is right in the mix, too. While book reads overlong in some parts, it keeps you guessing and reading to see what happens next.

Sound quality horrible

The sound quality of this reading was horrible and narrator's voice inconsistent. Have not experienced this with other reading any same narrator.

Not the same

I thought it was okay but something was missing. Later I figured out it was not read by Barbara Rosenblat. No offense to Ms OMally but I had listened to others and it wasn’t what I expected

Poor narration

Not only was the narrator stilted and choppy, but at times the story was interrupted by a voice that didn’t match the rest of the narration. I wish audible would market the version by Barbara Rosenblat instead. She is excellent. Don’t buy this version!

Fun and engaging.

The book was well written and engaging. I was interested and looked forward to hearing more. I was confused by some parts that sounded different but my only guess is that it was parts that were added back in after it was unabridged.

Mostly good

Good book but some odd editing which is very noticeable. I also prefer the other reader. Not bad though. Very good for a free book.
