Theodosia and the Staff of Osiris

i fell in love with Theodosia in book #1 and quickly ordered this #2. It could not get here fast enough! The beginning of this book sucked me in with a crazy scenario. I love her wit and intelligence, she is quick on her feet for a 10 year old. Her uptight grandmother is trying to force a new governess on her, good luck with that! She calls Theodosia impertinent for speaking her intelligent mind, which is sad, because she is just observing and speaking the truth. Fine.. Color me impertinent then! If you love Egyptian history, this is a MUST READ series. Adults will love it too (personally speaking). Her father also is reminiscent of Elizabeth Peters' Amelia Peabody series. He reminds me of Emerson in his mannerisms and he is also an archaeologist.
