Book Description

August 15, 1999
This is a recreation of the life of Akhenaten, Nefertiti's husband, which tells the story of his reign from 1378 to 1362 BC. In spite of attempts to eradicate all traces of his reign, enough exists to tell a story of incest, heresy, androgyny and a massive cult of personality.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pyramid Seduction, May 9, 2001
By 
This review is from: Akhenaten (Paperback)
Let yourself be drawn in. These poems are some of Porter's most seductive. Historical tones and raw sexuality make this a very satisfying read. If you have read The Monkey's Mask, make this book the next that you read.

3.0 out of 5 stars Ancient Lust, February 16, 2000
This review is from: Akhenaten (Paperback)
Dorothy Porter's frank sexual tone works well with this ancient tale of power, mysticism and intrigue. A narrative verse as effective as 'Monkey's Mask,' Porter seduces the readers into a realm of enchanting deities and distant mythology where mummification could almost pass as a kinky sex-play.
