A lush, unputdownable novel about the legendary Cleopatra. Discover
the woman behind the myth, in this epic and opulent novel, perfect
for fans of Jennifer Saint, Madeline Miller, Philippa Gregory and
Alison Weir. ................... A young queen. Consecrated at
birth as a royal goddess, Cleopatra learns early on from her
father's experience that to rule means to fight. Politically
astute, her deep love for Egypt means she'll do everything in her
power to retain its autonomy from the all-devouring Romans. A great
emperor. Julius Caesar is a legendary warrior whose might helped
secure the Egyptian throne for Cleopatra's father. Years later,
when he encounters the now Queen of Egypt, it is more than a
meeting of rulers - it is a meeting of souls. Together they could
have ruled the world. In Julius, Cleopatra finds the first person
who challenges and respects her fiercely brilliant mind, who
understands her duty and shares her passionate nature. Their union,
forged in conflict, seems unbreakable, but are the bonds binding
them to their countries even stronger? Yet in a choice between love
and duty, only one can win.
