This seemed to go off Archer's usual track. Instead of heading out on her own archeological adventure, Annja's doing a "job" for Roux to replenish the pot. Annja's previous experiences have been investigations for History's Monsters or her own scholarly excavations.

We do have the opportunity of meeting the Elephant Child...who, amazingly enough, doesn't die. Annja has agreed to purloin an artifact for a private party---an action she has always despised and EC is after the same artifact for the same purposes. Naturally, Annja has a swinging good time and helps save the day.

Not one of my favorites in this series. Just about everyone dies.. and I bet her arch enemy will never show up again. Her cop friend keeps showing up, albeit not very often, and never for something good. Other than that, it's Roux, Garin, and Annja in some mess that has nothing to do with them originally. Boo.

sucked eggs. took 200 pages before anything interesting started happening.

annja goes off to myanmar to hunt for a golden elephant that may or may not exist (of course it exists or else there would be no book).

shes whiny and makes tons and tons of stupid decisions that are entirely out of character for her. other readers agree and call it the worst in the series. its just a terrible book that doesnt fit well in the series or with the character i've been reading about for 14 books now.

multi-author series. victor milan
