COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Peabody and Emerson's further jaunts submitted by terpsichore17 on July 16, 2019, 2:08pm Ramses is too precocious for me to actually suspend my disbelief, and the murderer's rationale is thin. Still, an amusing read, with the usual interesting details of archaeology, the potential disappointments of pyramid investigation, with papyrus for spice.
a good book submitted by kevinhe on July 24, 2019, 11:45am such an interesting book on mummy.
