I found this book quite absorbing. It was a fascinating glimpse into the lives of people so very different from ourselves. It put a colourful flesh onto the bare bones of historical fact.
The political intriques had your head spinning, as Nefertiti attempted to keep her country from ruin and her family from asassination, whilst trying to humour an unbalanced husband. What a woman !
Alongside the complex plot were glimpses into the everyday life of the nobility and those who served them. The fashions, the social life, the loves and the losses, vibrant cities and gentle countryside. It was all there.
