Am I the only one who has heard of Prince Tarke? Isn't he the one of the Charcters in Last Camel Died at Noon?
Prince Tarkan... Isn't he the one that is like a brother to Nefret? He is Kemit? I'm not really sure! But anyways... I should be studying for a Midterm but I rather be here reading about Amelia Peabody. My grandma introduced me to Children of the Storm this summer and I've been hooked. I read as many of the books as I could in order from the beggining over the summer, and as soon as school started I had to restrict myself to one book a week (becasue of school as well as my limmited allowance) The worst possible was Falcon, I finished at at 11 at night and I just couldn't sleep.. My mom had taken the next book in the series because I hadn't been studying and I snuck into her room while she was sleeping and stole it. The series is SO good. I think I am going to start the Vicky Bliss series while I wait for the next book, because I heard there's a next book !!
BY the way... Ramses is the best and funniest character. I love him as a little boy, maybe favorite moment in the whole series is when Emerson is reading to him from his manuscript abouta Pharoah that had been murdered and Ramses states that some one in the Harem did it to him!
Children of the storm introduces two new characters, Ramses and Nefret's children. I can't wait to see how they develop. I find it hard to beleive I could fall in love with even more characters in the series
Does any one know when the next Amelia Book comes out? I bought the compendium but even that isn't enough to hold me over until it comes out!
I just finished the "Falcon" and was wondering if anyone could tell me if there is a sequel?
Yes, there are more books in the series after "Falcon". The next book after "Falcon" is "He Shall Thunder In the Sky", followed by "Lord of the Silent", "The Golden One", and finally "Children of the Storm". There is also a new book coming out soon, "The Guardian of the Horizon", which goes back and tells a story from the Lost Years, some of the years that are skipped in between some of the novels so far.
The next book coming out (the one Ana Bento mentioned, Guardian on the Horizon) comes out March 30. It's from 1907-1908, they go back to the lost oasis to help Tarek. (Not Tarkan, I dont no wat i was thinking)
I, too, am very impatient for another Vicki Bliss. Any details on The Serpent and the Crown? Amazon mentions it is coming, but the MPM website hasn't given any info yet...
I too, would love to see a new Vicki Bliss. Any word on anything?

You can check out anytime you like...but you can never leave!
The Serpent on the Crown in the Amelia Peabody series, comes out March 29, 2005
Apparently, Ms. Peters has other obligations currently, but has not ruled out another Vicki Bliss story. There is nothing now on the horizon.
I just discovered Elizabeth Peters series of Amelia Peabody, really enjoy it and look forward to the next book, but then what is the NEXT book. It is hard to tell, the way they have them listed in the front of each book is not always the same. You get involved, they now have grandkids, then the next book listed should have been read many books ago. What is the real chronological listing of the books so they may be read in real order?
Hello Fellow Elizabeth Peters fans,
I am a costumer and I am planning an Amelia
costume. I am planning to do shirt-waist
and Turkish trousers both due to preference
and ease of construction. My question is
color. I have no idea what color to go
with. I am only part way through book 3
(please no spoilers!). My mom swears there
is somewhere where she says she wears
"happy colors" but mom can't find it and
doesn't remember if there are examples. I
was thinking a lighter colored light-medium
weight linen. Does anyone have ideas?
Also should the shirtwaist and trousers
match or no?
Thanks!
