Book Comments & Discussion
The story of the first and last female farao. Read it when I was 15, three times in a year I think.
Intrigue, love, hate, politics, history the list goes on... Plus a really strong and intelligent female main caracter. One of my favourite books, made a really strong impact on me.

Storyline
She ruled Egpyt not as Queen but as Pharaoh, 35 centuries ago. Yet her name-Hatshepsut-does not appear in dynastic scrolls, nor is her reign celebrated on monuments. This is the story of the young woman who assumed the throne of Egypt, mastered the arts of war and government, lived her life by her own design, and ruled an empire-the only woman Pharaoh in history.
