THE SEVENTH SCROLL

Fans of Indiana Jones who haven't yet encountered Smith's novels will enjoy any of his adventure tales. In his latest a beautiful Egyptian woman with a doctorate in archaeology and a wealthy British adventurer search the Ethiopian highlands for the treasures of an ancient tomb. The pace never flags as the heroes overcome each obstacle between them and the Pharoah's golden fortune. Narrator Cazenove, who has a fine gift for vocal characterization, brings the story to life. His British accent is clear to American listeners. The abridgment doesn't interfere with the substance and pace of the story as it sometimes can. B.V. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 95]
