He Shall Thunder in the Sky

I fin­ished read­ing He Shall Thun­der in the Sky and I have to say that I was pleas­antly sur­prised by it. I had been find­ing Ram­ses and com­pany to be more an annoy­ance than an inter­est in some of the pre­vi­ous books, but in He Shall Thun­der in the Sky, they felt more like com­plete per­sons in their own right which made them far more inter­est­ing. Also, there was that sur­pris­ing twist about Sethos’s past which was revealed at the end of the book. I liked that, in part because it caught me so off guard and because I think Ms. Peters wrote that scene par­tic­u­larly well.

Over­all, I give this book 4.5 out of 5 points.

Next up, I’ll be read­ing Ms. Peter’s next book in the Amelia Peabody mys­ter­ies, Lord of the Silent. Till next, happy page turning.
