He Shall Thunder in the Sky
He Shall Thunder in the Sky: An Amelia Peabody Mystery | Elizabeth Peters
6 posts | 22 read | 8 to read
Passion among the pyramids. Forged antiquities. A country at war. A camel in the garden. A cameo by Lawrence of Arabia. Add in Peterss trademark intelligent plotting, engaging characters, and stylish writing and we can hardly ask for anything more. Cincinnati Enquirer One of the most beloved characters in mystery/suspense fiction, archeologist and Egyptologist Amelia Peabody bravely faces gravest peril in Cairo on the eve of World War One in New York Times bestselling Grandmaster Elizabeth Peterss magnificent Egyptian adventure, He Shall Thunder in the Sky. The San Francisco Examiner calls these heart-racing exploits of Amelia and her courageous family, the Emersons, pure delight. But perhaps the New York Times Book Review states it best: Between Amelia Peabody and Indiana Jones, its Ameliain wit and daringby a landslide.

No. 12 in the series-only eight more books to go and I will have completed it. This one was particularly good. I know many readers become invested in the relationship between Ramses and Nefret, but for me, more touching was the development of Amelia‘s relationship with her son. WWI has started and the Emersons are involved, naturally. My only complaint is that evil Percy does not suffer enough. I‘d have liked to see him in prison. #serieslove24

Did a lazy #readjanuary today for #bookspublishedinthe2000s because we are also doing a marathon save the date addressing for the upcoming #bookishwedding. The Amelia Peabody series is my fav of all time are these are just the few that fit today's hashtag. The top one, He Shall Thunder in the Sky, is my favorite book and has literally been read to pieces. #booklove 💕📚💕
