Summary: AN ENCHANTING SERIES
Review: All of the books in the Mrs. Pollifax series (as well as the whole of Mrs. Gilmans' works) are truly delightful. The reader will be swept away by the adventure, humor and intrigue, all the while learning about the customs and history of foreign lands. You can start with any book in the series, but if you have the chance, read them all. They are not to be missed!

Summary: A Definite Page-Turner
Review: As much as I love the entire Pollifax series, I would have to say that Dorothy Gilman's "The Amazing Mrs. Pollifax" is the most exciting of the bunch. I stayed up most of the night reading this book because I couldn't wait to read what was going to happen next. Again, I love all of Gilman's Pollifax books, but this one is the most action-packed. If you liked "The Unexpected Mrs. Pollifax," you'll love her second, "Amazing," adventure.

Summary: Wonderful! very highly recommended
Review: I am a huge fan of Dorothy Gilman's Mrs. Pollifax series (especially through and including Mrs. Pollifax on Safari -- although I still buy and read each one as soon as they're published). And this is a real winner. Very witty and entertaining. Although I usually give away mysteries after reading them, I can't bear to part with this series (through and including Mrs. Pollifax on Safari), and love rereading them over and over again. VERY highly recommended.

Summary: Lots of Fun!

Summary: Mrs. Pollifax Wears Many Hats!
Review: In the follow-up to the charming debut novel, The Unexpected Mrs. Pollifax, Dorothy Gilman writes another book filled with intrigue and heroism. Mrs. Pollifax, a widow who enjoys teas and garden clubs, sets out on her second courier job for the CIA, a mission which starts in Istanbul. Searching for a missing woman (an agent with international ties), Mrs. Pollifax poses as a tourist to track down the woman and smuggle her safely out of the country. Protected by only an agent, who has no idea what her real mission is to be, Mrs. Pollifax must use her newly acquired knowledge of karate and her unflappable nature to charm her way out of some sticky situations. Hair-raising as always, Mrs. Pollifax's second adventure will leave you wanting more!I was thrilled to read the second adventure of Mrs. Pollifax, and enjoyed every moment spent with her on the case. Mrs. Pollifax is not a person that you would initially feel would make a good CIA agent. She is elderly, loves to wear outlandish hats, and finds a way to talk and get to know everyone around her. But it is just these qualities that make her so invisible in the world of spies, and even the most cynical of agents falls under her spell. I loved the fact that Mrs. Pollifax learned karate (since she hates guns I worried about how she could plausibly protect herself) and that she was just as lovable yet determined as she was in the previous book. If you have not tried this series, pick up a copy of this book and the previous book, The Unexpected Mrs. Pollifax, and join the millions of others who are charmed by this beloved character! Enjoy! A Cozy Mystery Lover

Summary: Non-Stop Action
Review: Intrigue in distant places is a mark of Dorothy Gilman's Mrs. Pollifax series. In this one, she captures the flavor of Turkey beautifully. In addition to well developed characters, there is a lot of action packed into this little book. Mrs. Pollifax is truly amazing.
Rating:
Summary: I liked it very much because Mrs. Pollifax is unpredictable.
Review: Mrs. Pollifax has a very inquisitive mind. She gets bored with her geranium gardens and needs to travel. She adores mystery and intrigue, and so do I!
