I'm so glad you brought it up!

I went through my personal Elizabeth Peters/Amelia Peabody craze some years ago, and read the entire series up to The Serpent on the Crown, when it came out in 2005. At that point I was moving away from the Cozy genre into other sorts of reading, so I haven't read any of her titles that came after the 2005 book.

Even so, I remember the series with great fondness - it's a wonderful recommendation!
