Curse of the Specter Queen

Thank you Netgalley for the ARC!

If you were a fan of The Young Indiana Jones TV series, this book is for you. It's all the adrenaline, cleverness, and quip of that series, but with some badass women at the helm.

1920s got you down? You don't love all the macho mansplaining? Do you like an ensemble cast of fun, wild, clever, and capable people? You need this book.

The adventure kept me on my toes and had me coming back to it with a sense of urgency bordering on obsession. I needed to know who the voice was and why. I got so committed to the plot at one point that I was yelling at the pages: "It's *******, turn around!!!" (No spoilers here).

It was a neat adventure that I would recommend to teens trying to figure out if there is excitement in archeology. This book absolutely reminds us that history and knowledge have power and should be revered and a little feared.

If this is a series I would love to revisit these characters and see what other trouble they can get in and out of. - Sky
