Book Reviews of Laughter of Dead Kings (Vicky Bliss, No. 6)
Book Review: Just happy to see a new book by Elizabeth Peters!
Summary: 3 Stars
I truly am just happy that Elizabeth Peters has a new book out, but I have to admit I was a little disappointed. I love both the Vicky Bliss and Amelia Peabody series and had been so awaiting a new one! I enjoyed the book as kind of a nice wrap up to the Vicky Bliss story line, but had I not been a fan, I don't think I would have enjoyed it much. There was far too much moving around endlessly without any real plan or intent. As one reviewer already said, Vicky's ongoing preoccupation with her next meal got tedious. I kept waiting for something to happen and for someone to step up with a real idea or plan for solving the "mystery". No one does and the characters just keep running from place to place hoping to stumble onto the answer. It's amazing they actually figure it all out. The characters themselves are still fun and enjoyable to read, and I love Ms. Peters writing style. I just wanted more of a plot. Great idea for one though, just not much follow through. I eagerly await her next novel!
