The Heretic Queen: Heiress of Misfortune, Pharaoh's Beloved review

Posted : 10 years, 8 months ago on 2 September 2013 09:59

I found this enjoyable enough, though it wasn't a blockbuster historical novel by any means. Nefertari, niece of Nefertiti, has to win her way into the good graces of the Egyptian people and defend herself against the wily machinations of an evil high priest. (He's even got an evil eye.) Plus there's plenty of jealousy and back-biting from a rival wife to keep things boiling along. This is light reading, good for when you want something that will move quickly. Just don't expect any deep philosophical conundrums, intricate characterizations, or strict historical accuracy.
