Title: The first two were captivating but it's downhill from there!
Product review: I bought this book because I'm interested in Egyptology but rather than reading just hard facts I thought I'd make my read a little more colourful. So I started off with lots of enthusiasm as I read the first 2 volumes. Half-way through the third volume and I was beginning to find the story a little over-the-top every time Ramses and Nefertari gazed at each other and felt their love. They kept rediscovering their love and their feeling kept growing the more intense.....it's was just too "corny" for me to handle. I know the book has a lot of history in it but I'd rather it wasn't told in a too fairy-tale manner. The good thing is that the story moves at a great pace....especially towards the end in the fourth and fifth volume.
