Summary: The Seven-Year Itch hits the Emersons...
Comment: In this installment of the Amelia Peabody mysteries, we begin with the Emersons settling into comfortable married life with their young son "Ramses" and their newest charge, Nefret. It is time for the winter's archaeological season, and Amelia is determined to leave the children at home with their Aunt Evelyn and Uncle Walter and rekindle some of their earlier marital excitement in the hot sands of Egypt. All it takes is their first night at Shepheard's (their habitual Cairo hotel), the reappearance of old friends and enemies, and a freak accident to do just that!
While this is not the best book in the series, it is certainly full of the humor, romance, astonishing British sense of superiority, and archaeological suspense that are the hallmarks of the series. I personally think that Ramses is such a hoot that he is one of the best characters in the books, so his being left at home was a slight detriment in my opinion. However, I am sure that the next book in the series will see Ramses and Nefret back in action again!

Summary: Lost in Amarna
Comment: I love Elizabeth Peters' Amelia Peabody mysteries! While I enjoyed this book, I believe it would have been a difficult choice had I not read the preceding books in the series. Amelia and Emerson return to the archeological site where they met, however things are more dangerous than ever and the Emersons are constantly in peril.
One of the stranger plot twists is Emerson's amnesia and sudden recovery. During his amnesia Amelia's character exhibits emotional depths that are touching but very removed from her general pragmatism.
This book was okay, but not my favorite in the series.
