Cleopatra's Daughter: A Novel

by: Michelle Moran
Michelle Moran wrote another riveting example of her portrayal of Cleopatra's children, Selene and Alexander, directly following the death of Cleopatra and Marc Antony (Antony not Anthony). This book, like her others on Ancient Egypt, have vivid details and pull the reader into a world racked with intrigue and conspiracy. She is a brilliant writer!

The Memoirs of Cleopatra: A Novel

by: Margaret George
I could repeat the other reviewers, but I will not. I read this and LOVED IT. I loved the HBO Series Rome, and my friend, said she thought Cleopatra was inaccurately portrayed, and cited this book. Well I read this book, having always been interested in ancient Egypt, and I absolutely loved it. I felt like it was historically and culturally rich, and it was a juicy read as well. I can't imagine anyone who is interested in this subject not enjoying the book.

Antony and Cleopatra: A Novel (Masters of Rome)

by: Colleen McCullough
What a fascinating struggle between East and West. Between work ethic and machismo. McCullough is a genius at porraying characters from this period. What an interesting question - why did Antony go native? What was Cleopatra's motive? What was Caesarion like?
I like her porrayal of terrific characters and little known campaigns such as Ventidius and Antony's invasion of Parthia.
McCullough writes of the retreat from Parthia as a disaster, but it was actually a wise strategem to go through mountains where the Parthians horse archers strengths would be nullified.

by: Rene Goscinny, Albert Uderzo
I am so glad to see these wonderful comics be printed in omnibus editions. I am so looking forward to seeing more of these becoming available. I understand that there were at least 33 of these done and I want them all. Since they were produced when I was growing up, I appreciate all of the humor that they had. I want the whole set.
