Description from Publisher's Weekly: |
This fictionalized life of the notorious queen is told from the point of
view of her younger sister, Mutnodjmet. In 1351 B.C., Prince Amunhotep
secretly kills his older brother and becomes next in line to Egypt's
throne: he's 17, and the 15-year-old Nefertiti soon becomes his chief
wife. He already has a wife, but Kiya's blood is not as royal, nor is
she as bewitching as Nefertiti. As Mutnodjmet, two years younger than
her sister, looks on (and falls in love), Amunhotep and the equally
ambitious Nefertiti worship a different main god, displace the priests
who control Egypt's wealth and begin building a city that boasts the
royal likenesses chiseled in stone. Things get tense when Kiya has sons
and the popular Nefertiti has only daughters, and they come to a boil
when the army is used to build temples to the pharaoh and his queen
instead of protecting Egypt's borders. Though sometimes big events are
telegraphed, Moran, who lives in California and is making her U.S.
debut, gets the details just right, and there are still plenty of
surprises in an epic that brings an ancient world to life. (July)
