Product Description
In this fourth book in the series, Theodosia sets off to Egypt to return the Emerald Tablet—embedded with the knowledge of some of the ancient world’s most guarded secrets. Accompanied by her cat, Isis (smuggled along in a basket), Theo plans to return the artifact, then explore the mysteries surrounding her own birth and oh, yes— help her mother dig up treasures on her archeological expedition.
But nothing ever works out as planned, especially when a precious treasure appears suddenly, and then just as suddenly disappears . . . When the Serpents of Chaos get involved, Theo finds she’s digging up a lot more than she expected!

| 7 of 7 people found the following review helpful  Theodosia finally goes to Egypt!, By This review is from: Theodosia and the Last Pharaoh (The Theodosia Series) (Hardcover) This is the fourth book in the Theodosia Thockmorten series by R.L. LaFevers. This was my favorite book in the series so far, it really took the story to another level.Theodosia has journeyed with her mother to Egypt supposedly to help her mom on an archaeological dig. Theodosia's real purpose it to return the Emerald tablet and other important artifacts to the protection of the Brotherhood so that they don't fall into the evil hands of the Serpents of Chaos. I really enjoyed this book. Theodosia takes on more responsibility than in previous books and is really maturing; she has started making decisions that take the welfare of others into account. We also get some great new characters thrown into the mix. In general it was just cool to have this book take place in Egypt. Theodosia finds out a ton of interesting things about her birth and history and about how she is tied into the ages long battle between the Serpents of Chaos and the...

I enjoyed reading this book, although I'm now in my early forties. The book is aimed at 9 - 12 year olds (or grades 4 - 7). I have not read any of the other books in the series, and this is the fourth in the series, so I wasn't sure how easy or difficult it would be to "catch up" with the characters. The author has the main character (Theodosia) appear in chapter 1 writing a list, while traveling by train to meet her mother. The list summarizes the main plot and characters involved in the series so far, and while it isn't the most exciting way to begin a novel, it helps if you are completely new to the story and only able to begin with Book 4.As a child at this age, I remember being very fascinated by all things Ancient Egyptian. I read every book I could find at the public library on the topic, including several fiction books I remember fondly. Children (and adults) who enjoy the Theodosia series (or just enjoy all age-level books about Ancient Egypt)might want... Read more 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful  I've enjoyed the whole series...can't wait to read them to my daughter!, By Stacee "Stacee" (Michigan) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Theodosia and the Last Pharaoh (The Theodosia Series) (Hardcover) I've read all of the Theodosia books and I was very excited to read this last book. It feels like the series has come to an end, but I am secretly holding out for Theodosia to grow up and marry one of the young boys in her exciting adventures! Haha! The books are incredibly easy to read and they are fun to exaggerate. I definately plan on reading this series to my daughter (currently 2 years old) when she gets a little older. I'm sure she will love the adventure as much as I did. The author has done a great job of grasping the innocence of Theodosia while also making her whimsy and reliably 11 years old. Read this series for an easy and exciting read for the young ones and the young at heart. |
