Brilliant

Moyra Caldecott really knows how to bring an ancient world to life. Well written, well-researched and enjoyable. Not quite as good, perhaps as the other two Egyptian novels by this author ("Akhenaten" and "Tutankhamun") but highly recommended. Much better than the over-rated "Ramses" books.
