It's a story of Ramses and how he became Pharaoh. Like many reviewers, I found the characters flat. I've been spoiled by some amazing historical fiction in the past couple years, and this book isn't in the same league. Still, there's no denying I enjoyed reading the book, a real page turner. Because of the flatness of the characters, it's almost a "trashy novel" with no substance, and I feel a little guilty for liking the book. ( ) wellington299 | Feb 19, 2022 | no reviews | add a review

Before he knows it, the younger prince is surrounded by enemies and turning to his friends: Moses, the brilliant young Hebrew; Setau, the snake charmer and mage; Ahmeni; the frail scholar; and Set and Nefertari, the two beautiful women Ramses loves.
