This is a complete collection of unabridged audiobooks, all narrated by Barbara Rosenblat. They're numbered by their order in the overall narrative rather than their release date, although each one is tagged with the year the book was published. In technical terms they're mono, 16kbps Opus, and I've listened to each one from beginning to end to be certain there are no significant issues with their audio. The total running time of the series is 12 days, 16 hours, and 51 minutes; or just under 305 hours. Well, 304 and a half. There's a 26 minute interview with the author and audiobook narrator at the end of book 10, recorded in 1998. --- The Amelia Peabody series is a series of twenty historical mystery novels and one non-fiction companion volume written by Egyptologist Barbara Mertz (1927-2013) under the pen name Elizabeth Peters. The series is centered on the adventures of the unconventional female Egyptologist Amelia Peabody Emerson, for whom the series is named, and an ever-increasing number of family, friends, allies, and characters both fictional and based on historical figures. The novels blend mystery and romance with a wryly comic tone, and at times also parody Victorian-era adventure novels such as those written by H. Rider Haggard. The series was published between 1975 and 2010, with the final, posthumous novel (completed by Joan Hess) appearing in 2017
