The Last Egyptian


Gelesen von LibriVox Volunteers

(4.5 stars; 14 reviews)

Published anonymously during Baum's lifetime as he did not want his adult adventure stories to detract from his children's fantasy stories, the story takes the limited points of view of three protagonists in the field of Egyptology. A complex tale of intrigue, embezzlement, forgery, arranged marriages, bigotry and cheating keep the reader guessing the outcome until the last chapter. (6 hr 37 min)
