THEODOSIA AND THE EYES OF HORUS

THEODOSIA AND THE EYES OF HORUS, by R. L. LaFevers (Houghton Mifflin 2010)(ages 8-12). Theodosia Throckmorton is back and the Museum of Legends and Antiquities is as unsettled as ever. This time, she and her brother unearth a mysterious Emerald Tablet which the Scorpions and a mysterious stage magician have been after for years.

Add some secrets about her own past, dealing with her austere grandmother, avoiding the cabbage-y Fagenbush, and lifting the usual petty curses that seem to populate the museum, and Theodosia has almost more than she can handle...

THEODOSIA AND THE EYES OF HORUS, the third Theodosia book, is another entertaining romp through an Edwardian London where the mysteries of ancient Egypt have come home to roost.
