The second volume of Sir Philip Pullman’s The Book of Dust sees Lyra, now 20 years old, and her daemon Pantalaimon, forced to navigate their relationship in a way they could never have imagined, and drawn into the complex and dangerous factions of a world that they had no idea existed. Pulled along on his own journey too is Malcolm: once a boy with a boat and a mission to save a baby from the flood, now a man with a strong sense of duty and a desire to do what is right.

The book is superbly written and has several protagonists you want to follow further. However, some scenes are not pretty to read…

After an adventurous season spent excavating at Dahshoor, and narrowly averting the clutches of the Master Criminal, Victorian Egyptologist Amelia Peabody Emerson and her spouse prepare for a quiet summer in England. The social and domestic routine, though interrupted by the precocious escapades of their only child, Ramses, hardly seems much of a challenge for the indomitable Emersons.

Amelia Peabody and her family in high spirits!
Revisado: 08-29-12
What did you love best about The Deeds of the Disturber?
The story takes place in Great Britain and features highborn families, an archeologist and his wonderful family and not so wonderful relatives in a funny and highly entertaining chase for a vicious murderer disguised as an ancient Egyptian priest.
Ramses Emerson is emerging as a skilled investigator, Amelia herself is caught in the throngs of jealousy and Emerson is his usual irascible self.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Deeds of the Disturber?
Ramses disguises himself as a girl and finds that girls are more inhibiting than playing a street urchin.
Have you listened to any of Barbara Rosenblat’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Her performances always are a rare delight. Her work on the British accent could be improved at times.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Amelia Peabody Emerson succumbs to jealousy. Everyone can relate to this!
Any additional comments?
A must for any Elizabeth Peters and Barbara Rosenblat enthusiast!
