After an adventurous season spent excavating at Dahshoor, and narrowly averting the clutches of the Master Criminal, Victorian Egyptologist Amelia Peabody Emerson and her spouse prepare for a quiet summer in England. The social and domestic routine, though interrupted by the precocious escapades of their only child, Ramses, hardly seems much of a challenge for the indomitable Emersons.

Undeterred by world war and enemy submarines, Amelia and Emerson set sail once again for Egypt, where ghosts of an ancient past and spectres of a present-day evil hover silently over an inscrutable land. In the autumn of 1915 Cairo is transformed into an army camp teeming with enemy agents and shockingly bold tomb robbers are brazenly desecrating the ancient sites. Amelia seeks refuge at a remote dig in Luxor, but this provides no guarantee of safety when she discovers a fresh corpse in an ancient tomb.

The Perfect Combination does it again
There is little I can say about this book that I have not already said repeatedly about Books 1-5 of this series. The stories of Elizabeth Peters and the narration of Barbara Rosenblat are the perfect combination for wonderful audible listening. Peters writes the Peabody series with dry wit and humor, and Rosenblat delivers that wit and humor precisely as intended by the author.
This book involves the Emerson family in traveling across the desert to find "the Lost City" and rescue a young girl from the ancient culture of the City and take her back to civilization. In a nod to the novels of H. Ryder Haggard, Peters has stuffed this story with great adventure and derring-do, and Rosenblat makes it all exciting while being humorous. As with the rest of the series, there are many LOL moments. And I am always amazed at the talent of Barbara Rosenblat, who delivers British, American (from the South),Scots, Egyptian, French, German and other assorted Arabic accents and voices, with a voice of a timbre which allows her to make adult males, females, and children all believable.
Carry on, Peabody!

You Can't Beat Amelia
This is one of my favorites in a great series. It has the signature humor, fine characterization, and action that make every Amelia Peabody worth listening to. I've read them all, but Barbara Rosenblat's narration really makes these books soar. An important new character is added in this one, so don't miss it!

Amelia Peabody series is great!
Elizabeth Peter's Amelia Peabody, along with her husband - Emerson, is an archaelogist and expert on Egyptian pyramids. Each year they spend time working on digs but danger, murder and young lovers "dog" each season. This book in the series is by far the most superb with masterful development of the characters, plot and sub-plots. The tension before all is resolved will please any mystery reader, particularly those that enjoy historical fiction.

Barbara Rosenblat's narration is here!
Thank God!
I missed this book when I was on my Elizabeth Peters wave, because of the change in narrators. Then today I was browsing for similar books and saw this! Now that Barbara Rosenblat's narration is available, I bought it right away.
Amelia Peabody books are such a pleasure when read by Barbara. The books are great on their own, but this narrator was made for them and enhances the experience exponentially. They are so uplifting when read by Barbara Rosenblat. And they are worth every cent - I have re-read each of them 2 or 3 times.
Thank you Audible for making this available! Yay!
...off to listen to it now...

The Best of the series so far
Would you consider the audio edition of The Last Camel Died at Noon to be better than the print version?
Absolutely! The superb narration brings the characters to life in a way the written word does not. Barbara Rosenblat could read the phone book and make it interesting!
Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
I did not see this as a bite-your-nails thriller but there several escape by the seat of your pants scenes in the book.
Which scene was your favorite?
I did not have a favorite scene in this story.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The Amelia Peabody series is not meant to pull heartstrings but to amuse and entertain.
Any additional comments?
Trapped in a lost civilization, Amelia Peabody, her husband Emerson, and her son Ramses solve a mystery while trying to escape. Precocious Ramses leads the villains on a frustrating chase.

Best since Crocodile on the Sandbank
Elizabeth Peters continues the Amelia Peabody series with disputably the best book since Crocodile on the Sandbank. Set in the Sudan, the book has the usual number of twists and dastardly villains. We are provided a small glimpse of a very loquacious Ramses as he approaches adolescence. I do like how Peters continues to develop the relationship between her characters as they grow together and age. Barbara Rosenblat’s narration is, as ever, simply amazing.

First 5 hours, 3 stars, last 10, 5 stars
This is undoubtedly one of the longest Elizabeth Peters novels, and the first section of it drags on for quite a long time. Once you get past this, though, it becomes one of the most interesting and exciting installments. The spear scene is one of my favorites in the series. In the future, I may skip the first third of the book, but I'm certain I'll relisten to the later chapters.

Amelia Peabody Love the trips to far off places
I bought the books when they were originally published and I thoroughly enjoyed them. However, Barbara Rosenblat does an extraordinary job of making the characters come alive. It is like being there.I love to hear Peabody's inner thoughts and reflections.
Peters always provides a solid who done it accompanied by the quirky Emerson-Peabody spice. There are always colorful side adventures and interesting supporting characters. Love their son Ramses - he is such a hoot.

Enthralling escape into a bygone age!
I find E Peters writing entertaining, fascinating and most enjoyable. Admittedly it could be described as dated but that is only right and proper as the story is set at the beginning of the last century! I enjoyed the ingenious plot as it pulled me gently through the benign to the horrifying consequences. Thank you for an excellent listen.

Barbara Rosenblat - a performative genius
What made the experience of listening to The Last Camel Died at Noon the most enjoyable?
Either Barbara Rosenblat is the most talented voice artist on the planet, or she has magnificent multiple personality disorder. The book is narrated by the inimitable Amelia Peabody, so the voice of this imperious, matriarchal, trailblazing protofeminist Egyptologist is our constant. But it's the brilliant contrast with the other voices that makes the listening so enjoyable - I had to stalk Barbara Rosenblat on Youtube to hear for myself that she wasn't a genuine member of the 19th century English upper classes.
What did you like best about this story?
The Amelia Peabody series (RIP Elizabeth Peters) gets better and better as it goes on. 'The Last Camel' is one of the earlier books, a tongue-in-cheek pastiche of King Solomon's Mines, a homage which pokes gentle fun at the self-satisfied arrogance of Empire.
Which character – as performed by Barbara Rosenblat – was your favourite?
Emerson (he of the 'sapphirine orbs', button-pupping muscles and impossibly manly chest) is brought vividly to life by Rosenblat's impressive vocal range, which renders his rumbling basso profundo and mildly cursing outrage in fabulous contrast to Amelia's penetrating contralto, Ramses' piping precociousness and Nefret's tinklingly musical treble.
Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I mostly listened to this book in the car, so the Peabody Emersons travelled with me on my way to work. I laughed out loud at their improbable adventures and at the moments in the narrative when they were being particular caricatures of themselves - and had a fond smile on my face for the rest of the time.

As usual, wonderfully entertaining :-)
From the start of this series , I've always enjoyed enjoyed every book. The interesting storylines, twists & plots with opportunity to learn a bit about egyptology at the same time is always a plus. However, what makes these books stand apart from all the audiobooks I've listened to, is the excellent narration bringing Amelia Peabody completely to life. I am continually amazed, this voice actor can come up with so many voices, accents, ages etc....l forget that I'm listening to book and I'm totally immersed in the story.

Enjoyable continuation of the Amelia Peabody saga
Would you listen to The Last Camel Died at Noon again? Why?
No - I never do
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Not really - it was a mild story, getting a bit samey
Any additional comments?
Got a little fed up with the constant innuendos hinting at the repetitive need for the two principle characters to be enjoying a busy love life. Added little to the story.
