Is your TBR list always growing? How do you choose what to read next? Diving into a good series is always a good choice and we’re here with recommendations for book series that you should have on your radar! This week we present the Amelia Peabody series by author Elizabeth Banks; this historical fiction/mystery series follows the adventure of Egyptologist Amelia Peabody as she explores the world in the late 1800s. Read on to learn more!**
Amelia Peabody, that indomitable product of the Victorian age, embarks on her debut Egyptian adventure armed with unshakable self-confidence, a journal to record her thoughts, and, of course, a sturdy umbrella. On her way to Cairo, Amelia rescues young Evelyn Barton-Forbes, who has been abandoned by her scoundrel lover. Together the two women sail up the Nile to an archeological site run by the Emerson brothers-the irascible but dashing Radcliffe and the amiable Walter. Soon their little party is increased by one-one mummy that is, and a singularly lively example of the species.
Strange visitations, suspicious accidents, and a botched kidnapping convince Amelia that there is a plot afoot to harm Evelyn. Now Amelia finds herself up against an unknown enemy-and perilous forces that threaten to make her first Egyptian trip also her last . . .
