Fiction and Fact in Excellent Mix - By: , 09 Jul 2000 
Continuing story of the life of Ramses the Great. Mixes historical fact & fiction using or contriving to use what we know (or can guess at) of the Ancient Egyptian way of Royal life. As good as the other book that I have read in this series.
A tremendous read - By: , 15 Mar 2000 
I have read alll five of the "Ramses" series of books & I have been thoroughly engrossed with the whole series. The story has continued with each new book in the series & I would thoroughly recommend this book to anyone.
Book four in the series of five, - By: , 11 Mar 2000 Book four in the series of five, Jacq still keeps the plot going, marvalllous series keep them coming.
A good airplane read - By: , 04 Jan 2000 I wish this series was available in the states, too. I picked my copy up in the airport shop in Zurich. It kept me interested for most of the flight back to Atlanta.
This was the first book I'd read in this series. Thankfully, it was self-contained enough that I didn't have any problems following the storyline.
Oh, quiet, you. - By: , 15 Dec 1999 Why I liked it? I don't know, but the mixture of history & myth was done very skillfully. I actuallly found alll of the repetition of things from previous books to be very helpful since this was the first one in the series I read. (I did read "Battle of Kadesh" later). The translation left something to be desired though.
I'm rather annoyed that I can't find the rest of the series in the States; I picked up #3 & 4 in Hong Kong, British spelling & alll. I'll never get used to it.
