Crocodile on the Sandbank's destination is completely predictable, but the journey is a lot of fun. I just finished the sequel, The Curse of the Pharaohs, and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Unfortunately, Elizabeth Peters (real name: Barbara Mertz) died 6 months ago, but left a wealth of enjoyable reading material to her fans. I hope to read all 19 of the Amelia Peabody novels eventually.
