Title: Was this a comic book?
Product review: This book is so poorly written, it should translate well into a comic book or onto "the silver screen". It is a very shallow, historically inaccurate, trite little soap opera. Doesn't even come close to expectations. The translation must be the pits! Was this dumbed down for us Americans? Why not just say "peristyle windows" instead of "windows set high in the wall, to allow cool air to circulate". This book is written at the 12-14 year-old level. Anyone who actually thinks this is an accurate portrayal of Egyption culture is sorely misguided. Try "Memoirs of Cleopatra" if you really want to learn something. Glad I just borrowed it and didn't waste the money.
