The Twelfth Transforming
A rich and vivid view into ancient Egypt. Filled with complex characters and palace intrigue, Pauline Gedge opens a doorway back in time and we are there, perfumed and bewigged with Pharaohs and Priests, courtesans and courtiers. One of my favorite books of historical fiction.
