The writer of this book seems to try to outdo herself with each sarcastic comment. I bought the book to read about Cleopatra, not to read the writer's ongoing effort to outdo her own sarcasm with each sentence. Maybe I don't get it, maybe I just don't get historian "humor", but if this is it, I hope I never run into it again. I'd rather just have the facts as the writer knows them than her effort to insert her own sarcasm on every page. I hope I never have the bad luck to read anything else from this author.

Informative, but dry as dust, much like Cleo's present state.

appropriate while visiting Turkey
I read Cleopatra while touring Turkey. I felt it was very helpful in understanding the Greek gods and mythology that preceded Christianity and Islam. However it did get a little repetitive at times.

I LOVED THIS BOOK-SO MUCH FACT, FICTION AND MYTH MIXED--AN EXCELLENT READ. IT SURE WILL BE A CHALLENGE TO THE MOVIE MAKERS.
