My Review:
I must be on an Egyptian rampage or something. I’ve become addicted to the culture of ancient Egyptian life style. I just can’t get enough of it. In this novel Michelle puts a glossary of terms towards the back of the book and it became my very best friend. I love the Egyptian language! Its so beautiful.
I never even heard of Nefertari until this book. I really enjoyed her story and how she dealt with the struggle of being Nefertiti niece. Her journey to win the Crown Prince’s heart is a long and trying process. Once she marries the Prince it is an even longer journey to become the Chief Wife since the Pharaoh has two wives. Since she is considered a heretic she must win the courts and the peoples heart to be consider a candidate for Chief Wife. Overall I think it is an Ok book. I wasn’t that into the story, I just loved the culture, places, and terms throughout this book.
Things to Watch Out For: Sexual scenes, murder, evil plots, and war.
