You know what they say about great minds!?! What a small world! >>>

Lynda S. Robinson is actually one of the next "batch" of authors I have on (one of) my "Authors To Post" list (s).

[Since I actually work a little behind what I post, her page should be up in a little while.]

Her sleuth is Lord Meren, the Eyes & Ears of King Tut. He solves mysteries with the help of his adopted son, Kysen, & the members Royal Charioteers.</p> <p>Reading this series has really brought home the fact the Egyptians really belived in all their gods. I watch all types of history shows but never got how dependant they were on their beliefs.</p> Do you have Lynda Robinson listed anywhere? Her sleuth is Lord Meren, the Eyes & Ears of King Tut.

Reading this series has really brought home the fact the Egyptians really belived in all their gods. I watch all types of history shows but never got how dependant they were on their beliefs.

I know how frustrating it is to read a book thinking that you are reading it in the correct order… So, I'm glad that the lists are helpful to you.

Thanks, again, for the Kate Sedley recommendation!

Like you, I keep finding new historical mysteries but I seem to read the books in the wrong order as they are often hard to find at the library or at bookstores - and here I thought EVERYbody liked medieval mysteries! ;-> Your lists - in order!- are very helpful as it is sometimes difficult to figure out which book came first or goes where in the order. Thank you!</p> <p>Also, if you DO like medieval mysteries, you should read the Roger the Chapman series by Kate Sedley - I didn't see her listed under authors on your site but her Chapman series is quite good - not as good as Margaret Frazer, Ellis Peters, etc. but still a good read. Sedley has at least a dozen books in the series and even has a brand new one out called "The Green Man". I thought I had read them all, but without the benefit of your list(s) I recently found 3 that I somehow missed (and of course they are in the middle of the series!) but I will still read them as Roger the Chapman is entertaining. FYI, if you want to read the series, "Death & the Chapman" is the 1st book and then "The Plymouth Cloak" - that will at least you started in the right order. If you want the full list, I think I have it worked out in the right order now, so let me know & I will send it to you.</p> <p>Keep up the good work!</p> <p>Leigh :-)</p> What a great site to find!
