Ramses II was one the greatest pharaohs in ancient Egypt,
By
This review is from: Ramses: The Battle of Kadesh - Volume III (Paperback)
I have read this book first in French and then in English, and I absolutely love it. The translation is very good because it captures the senses of the original. The life of Ramses II is not what people usually expect, and it explains a lot about his relationship with Moses. This book can be read by all ages, and I strongly recommend it! You will love the other 4 volumes as well.

A Perfect Historical Novel Of Suspense, Love, and Subterfuge,
By Sarah Germain (Newcastle-upon-Tyne, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ramses: The Battle of Kadesh - Volume III (Paperback)
The Battle Of Kadesh, the third instalment in the acclaimed Ramses series, is thus far the best and most compelling. It chronicles the next few years in Ramses reign, during which the Great Pharaoh must confront the near invincibility of the Hittite forces who crave expansion at Egypts expense. Before he can concentrate on war, however, Ramses reign is being undermined by a network of different alliances against him, most notably that of Ofir, the sorcerer, trying to use black magic to weaken the Pharaoh's defences; And an underground network of Hittite spies intent on bringing about Egypts downfall. Heading these operations is Shaanar, Ramses jealous elder brother who is consumed with his desire to rule. When the Battle of Kadesh finally dawns, Ramses is left alone to confront the entire barbaric Hittite army, forcing him to call upon his late fathers divine assistance. Will his prayers be answered ?This book had me up reading until the early hours of the morning. With spectacular landscape descriptions, charismatic protagonists, and suspenseful plots it truly is impossible to put down.

This review is from: Ramses: The Battle of Kadesh - Volume III (Paperback)
In the 'Battle off Khadesh' Christian Jacq brings ancient Egypt alive as if it all happened yesterday. You can actually feel the cool breezes in pharoah's gardens, touch the beautiful linen dresses of the queen and be amazed by the power of Ramses. The book is almost impossible to put down once you start it and when it comes to an end you wish it wouldn't. So beautiful and intriguing is this ancient world laid out in front of the reader that you become part of it and share the destiny of all its main characters. A must read!
