Rating 3/5
This book was actually better than I expected. I've discovered that I like Egyptian stories. The story told of Hatshepsut (who I have never heard of) who was queen to Thutmose II. When he died, she became Queen Regeant to their son Thutmose III. She, however, was not satisfied with this and eventually made herself King and ruler over the two lands of Egypt.
The story itself was a good story. Sometimes historical fiction authors pick a random person from history and try to make a story out of nothing just to be unique. The writing was simple and to the point. I think she could have been a little bit more descriptive or flowery with her language. Overall, it was a good book, but it didn't make me want to go out and buy everything that Tarr has written.
