Helpful Score: 2

3.5 stars. Compared to Michelle Moran's Nefertiti, I found this one a little dry and not so much of a page-turner. To me the story seemed to be missing enough descriptive detailing. The book had an exciting last few chapters, although when it all come together at the end, it was all a little too convenient and reminded me of a Scooby Doo cartoon. The character of Moses and the exodus of the Israelites was downplayed to literally nothing, which I found lame.
I am looking forward to trying out some deeper ancient Egyptian story-telling in some Pauline Gedge.
