Product Description

From AudioFile

Egad! Another adventure set in Egypt in the 1890's featuring the intrepid Amelia Peabody Emerson and her incredible entourage! The convoluted schemes of the tomb-robbing Master Criminal almost foil Amelia; then she discovers that she herself--tightly furled parasol, heaving alabaster bosom and all--may be the charming man's target. Narrator Barbara Rosenblat does a wonderful job of portraying the characters in this comedy-melodrama. She uses tremendous vocal range and pacing to deliver the witty dialogue. This audiobook is a fine addition for fans of Elizabeth Peters. B.V. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine

-- Philadelphia Inquirer

"Peters really knows how to spin romance and adventure into a mystery." --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than the Mummy Case, Jun 11 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Lion In The Valley Mm (Mass Market Paperback)

I was disappointed in the third book in the series and almost didn't get the next one. I'm very glad I did! Lion in the Valley is the best Amelia Peabody so far. Finally, the "mystery" gets going and the supporting characters get interesting. The Master Criminal is hilarious. I really began to like Amelia a lot more in this book. I thoroughly enjoyed this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Peabody!, May 14 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Lion In The Valley (Paperback)

Recently I re-read this book, and I've got to say, I think it's one of my favorites. It's one of the simpler Amelia Peabodys, before the industrious family gets involved with politics, war, and quite a number of characters.

While the Master Criminal had a minor role in "The Mummy Case" it's in this one that the Peabody-Emersons come face-to-face him, or rather, one of his many faces! When Amelia finally gets to talk to this genious of crime, he admits that he is in love with her! Hilarity ensues.

While I don't quite agree with the San Francisco Chronicle's review of this book: "A sexy romp", there IS more romance and less excavation in this book than the usual literature by Ms. Peters, so if you read the books for the in-depth look at Egyptology, you might skip this one, although I personally think it would be a mistake.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amelia Peabody-the Female Version of Indiana Jones, April 6 2004

By	Shelley M. Abernathy "chemgeek05" (San Angelo, TX United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Lion In The Valley Mm (Mass Market Paperback)

Amelia Peabody and husband Emerson were introduced in "Crocodile on the Sandbank," which is my favorite book. The couple is as intrepid as Indiana Jones, and trouble finds them as easily as it does the film hero. This tome extends their Egyptian adventures, which continue in many subsequent volumes. I really enjoy the couple's (mis)adventures and recommend this, or any other book in the series, to readers of all ages and interests.
