Title: Ancient Egypt in Hollywood
Product review: Despite my rather disparaging one-liner description, I enjoyed this book. What it lacks in historical detail it makes up for in action and dialogue. It was hard to put down, and I even came away with a feeling for ancient Egypt, its mysteries, deserts and pharoahs. The language is definitely modern, and the author doesn't even seem to attempt to take us back to that time. Still Ramses II, Son of Light was an entertaining read about a young prince being groomed to rule a great kingdom against enormous odds. I will read at least the next installment.
