"Meticulously researched and richly detailed . . . an engrossing tribute to one of the most powerful and alluring women in history."
–Boston Globe
Nefertiti and her younger sister, Mutnodjmet, have been raised in a powerful family that has provided wives to the rulers of Egypt for centuries. Ambitious, charismatic, and beautiful, Nefertiti is destined to marry Amunhotep, an unstable young pharaoh. It is hoped that her strong personality will temper the young ruler's heretical desire to forsake Egypt's ancient gods.
From the moment of her arrival in Thebes, Nefertiti is beloved by the people but fails to see that powerful priests are plotting against her husband's rule. The only person brave enough to warn the queen is her younger sister, yet remaining loyal to Nefertiti will force Mutnodjmet into a dangerous political game; one that could cost her everything she holds dear.
Most enjoyable historical fiction
NEFERTITI was a most enjoyable read. Each page called me to turn to the next one and the one after that, until the last.
I happened to read the novel a few days after I saw Nefertitits bust in the museum in Berlin, which made it truly special!
