Theodosia and the Eyes of Horus (Theodosia Series #3) Book

Being able to detect black magic isn't all tea and crumpets'and for Theodosia Throckmorton, it can be a decidedly tricky business! When Sticky Will drags Theo to a magic show featuring the Great Awi Bubu, she quickly senses there is more to the magician than he lets on, setting in motion a chain of events she never could have bargained for.

Meanwhile, back at the Museum of Legends and Antiquities, Henry is home for the spring holidays and makes an accidental discovery of an artifact that alchemists have been hunting for centuries. Soon, every black-cloaked occultist in London is trying to get their hands on it . . .

I choose to read this series because of my love of all things Ancient Egyptian. This series does not disappoint. Full of intrigue and magic, Theo has another adventure that starts with a magic show and ends with the stage set for her to take a trip to Egypt.

Theo is a wonderful character for young girls to read about. She is independent and smart, and loves intrigue. Her work with her parents in their museum adds great flavor to the book. There was a twist at the end that I didn't see coming, and it made me laugh. This is a smart and fun addition to the series.
