An exciting title in the historical the Royal Diaries series, Cleopatra VII: Daughter of the Nile describes the early life and escapades of the young Egyptian princess in climactic first person, written by series author Kristiana Gregory . From the Publisher The captivating diary of young Cleopatra's tumultuous life -- filled with opulence and mystery -- as a daughter of King Ptolemy Auteles, Pharaoh of Egypt. 3 Januarius, Morning I could feel my insides shaking. Would this sister try to poison me? Yes, I believe so. As for my other older sister, Berenice -- never! She and I adore each other even though I am eight years younger. I took the cup and raised it toward Tryphaena as if toasting her, but really I was watching the liquid, looking for oil floating on its surface, or powder sticking to the sides of the cup. If I suspected poison and tossed it into the pool, she would have her guards behead me on the spot. If it was indeed poison, one sip and I could die... My eyes closed as I took the first sip, as if savoring such an excellent taste, but really my thought was, O Isis, I am afraid... My stomach turned with nervousness, or was it from a fearsome death beginning in me? Reader Reviews Average Reader Review: Number of Reviews: 17 1. Not The Best Reviewer: alyssa from winnipeg, manitoba Date: 2/9/2003 8:15:59 PM I hate to say it, but this wasn't my favourite book. It was OK, but after a while it got kind of boring. 2. BEST BOOK EVER ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Reviewer: Lolo from Alabama Date: 11/17/2002 9:52:28 PM This book was one of the best books I've ever read. It was very educational but at times it was sad. I recommend this book for people that are good readers. 3. Cleopatra VII Reviewer: Lolo from alabama (nottelling) Date: 11/16/2002 7:55:59 PM This Book Is The Best Ever. It's Like Getting A History Lesson While Having Fun. I Couldn't Put The Book Down. I Recommend This Book For People That Like Learning About History And Who Likes To Read! 4. An influential queen of Egypt Reviewer: Jocelyn from Richmond Hill, Ont Date: 5/23/2002 1:58:03 PM Cleopatra's diary was v. real. I enjoyed reading it a lot and I read it again and again from time to time. I could only imagine the look on her face when she saw the severed head of her favourite sister, Berenice (I nearly gasped when I read that part). Enjoy reading it!! 5. Cleopatra VII Daughter of The Nile Reviewer: Courtney T from Windsor, Ontario (ancient_egypt_lover@hotmail.com) Date: 3/25/2002 8:41:10 PM This book was the best book I have ever read. There is so much detail, and it is exactly how you would picture Cleopatra's life and family! It makes me want to read page after page, and never put it down. It also inspired me to learn more about her time and life. I have read many other fictional books on Egyptian princesses and princes, but this one had so much description, and was very realistic. I would recommend it to anybody, especially those who love Egypt or Cleopatra. So, overall, I'm saying the best book ever, and read it! Read all of the reviews...
