Review: Good, but not as good as the others in the series.
Rating: 3 out of 5

I had hoped that, having read the other books in the series, that the conclusion at Carhae would have been outstanding.Not so. I found this the least enjoyable of the series. The treatment of the final confrontation at the epic battle of Carhae was somewhat abbreviated and simplistic. I didn't feel the long Epilogue added anything to the book.I would comment that the book has some typos etc of an annoying nature, but not as bad as the earlier books in the series.All in all, a pass, but not outstanding.Readers may like to look atMurder in the Palacefor an Ancient Egyptian Murder/Mystery series andWolves in Armour: Norman Conquest Novels- Book 1 (Volume 1)- the latter is a comparable book set in the Norman conquest of England.
