Book Price $0 : The first book in the epic Egyptian seriesThe first book in the epic Egyptian series. 'Fame and popularity breed envy in high places, and the adulation of the mob is fickle. they often take as much pleasure in tearing down the idols that they have grown tired of, as they did in elevating them in the first place. It is safer by far to live unseen and unremarked, as I always attempt to do' An ancient kingdom. An incredible destiny.

Yet when Intef's beautiful daughter Lostris is married to the Pharaoh, Taita is commanded to follow her, and swiftly finds himself deeper than he ever could have imagined in a world of deception and treachery. But outside the palace, the great kingdom of Egypt is divided, and in even greater danger. Enemies threaten on all sides, and only Taita holds the power to save them all...

Wilbur Smith knows how to craft an entertaining tale set against a detailed historical backdrop. 'River God' offers a great blend of drama and historical accuracy that's both informative and captivating. The delivery was prompt, thanks to my subscription service, which also saved me a few bucks. Although I loved the book, I found it a bit long-winded at times.

I really enjoyed 'River God'. It beautifully combines adventure, romance, and history, creating a gripping narrative that kept me engaged. The character development is impressive and the plot intricate. My copy arrived swiftly and was well-packaged. While I adored the story, some parts did feel a tad too descriptive, slowing the pace. Otherwise, a fantastic read!

River God had its moments, but I'd hoped for more. While the historical setting was well-depicted, the storyline felt a bit slow in places. The characters were interesting, yet sometimes predictable. Took advantage of my subscription for a small saving. Arrived quickly, though. Not entirely convinced, but worth a read if ancient Egypt intrigues you.
