Most of what I know about Cleopatra has been taken from what her enemies wrote about her. So yet again, a powerful woman has probably (I mean, can we ever know?)been cast as the wicked villain.

Natasha Solomons has given Cleopatra her own voice - and what a voice it is. She considers herself a goddess, her rule is absolute, and she won’t even put up with family going against her.

Egypt and Rome are the big players here, and seeing the contrast between the two superpowers was interesting, especially as Rome had such a low opinion of women. Cleopatra uses this to her own ends though, and Solomon is careful not to turn her into a seductress. Everything she does (with regards to Caesar), she does for Egypt.

Will we see a follow up book? We leave Cleopatra at about the halfway point of her life, so I really hope so!!

"This true story left a hole in my head and in my heart. A woman on death row in Egypt decides that she wants to tell her story before her execution. She is in prison because she's killed her pimp, but even looking death in the eye she feels it’s the best thing she ever did, for in a weird way it sets her free. Painful, complicated, sad, and triumphant—all at once."

One of my favourite podcasts
This has to be one of my favourite podcasts. I'm hugely into ancient egyptian history and so I was surprised but very pleased to come across this podcast. Each episode has been well researched and is well presented. It is largely chronological with mini episodes slotted in. It covers everything you could wish to know about ancient Egypt and more. Well worth a listen.

The third of Elizabeth Peter's <i>Amelia Peabody</i> (who is a Victorian archaeologist) series of books, this is the first one on which her incredibly precocious son Ramses is old enough to join Amelia and her husband on an expedition to Egypt.

Of course, this then turns into a mystery novel when it transpires that artifacts are being stolen from the digs(no surprise there), and when one of their acquaintances is murdered in Cairo ...
