Novels dealing with Ancient Egypt seem to discuss the same characters: Tutankhamen, Akhenaten and Nefertiti, Hatshepsut, and Ramses II. This however is not the case with this book.
The author, writing in a simple style, has researched deeply into the lives and characters of the Hyksos, and their invasion into Egypt. Among the numerous accurate details provided, he has included an explanation for the appearance of the horse and the use of the wheel and also writes of the complexity of Ancient Egyptian religion. Having a fascinating ending, this is an enjoyable read for all lovers of historical thrillers.
