Funny and enjoyable.

It was a very pleasant experience to listening to this book. Ms Rosenblat voice caught all Amelia's personality as well as the other characters's. I am looking forward to listening to the second book of the series.

What a Find and a Great Narrator!

Where does Crocodile on the Sandbank rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This audible ranks very high amongst my favourites. It is easy to listen to, a good story and a really great narrator. All combine to make a really worthwhile download. So much so that I have gone on to download more in the series and will be very sorry when I get to the end.

Who was your favorite character and why?

All of the characters were enjoyable, each had their own little touches, but Amelia Peabody is a great character!

What does Barbara Rosenblat bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

Barbara Rosenblat is a genius narrator! She really brings each character to life and this makes the stories much richer. All the different characters and accents add to the story.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No, not laugh or cry just smile delightedly from ear to ear!

Any additional comments?

Just great! This narration is what makes audible downloads so fantastic! An makes them enjoyable to listen to again and again.

Mummy in Egypt

This was the first Amelia Peabody book. I enjoyed the story and characters. I will continue on the next adventure with Amelia.

Smooth Cruise Hard Going

Strident narration makes it only possible to listen in short blasts, which is a shame as the characters are intelligent, on an interesting mission, in an intriguing place, on a beautiful boat. Usually love this narrator, but her stentorian sound level is too sharp and military, even for a forcible female in those times, which sadly made the story hard going.

Amusing in places, heartwarming, but laced with facts woven cleverly into the tale.

SORT OF ENJOYED IT

Different - in a good way!

Charmingly written and charmingly read - with a gentle touch of Victorian melodrama! Thought I'd just try the first one - already downloaded the next! I'll report back!!
