The Heretic Queen by Michelle Moran Book Summary

In ancient Egypt, a forgotten princess must overcome her family’s past and remake history.

The winds of change are blowing through Thebes. A devastating palace fire has killed the Eighteenth Dynasty’s royal family—all with the exception of Nefertari, the niece of the reviled former queen, Nefertiti. The girl’s deceased family has been branded as heretical, and no one in Egypt will speak their names.

A relic of a previous reign, Nefertari is pushed aside, an unimportant princess left to run wild in the palace. But this changes when she is taken under the wing of the Pharaoh’ s aunt, then brought to the Temple of Hathor, where she is educated in a manner befitting a future queen.

Soon Nefertari catches the eye of the Crown Prince, and despite her family’s history, they fall in love and wish to marry. Yet all of Egypt opposes this union between the rising star of a new dynasty and the fading star of an old, heretical one.

While political adversity sets the country on edge, Nefertari becomes the wife of Ramesses the Great. Destined to be the most powerful Pharaoh in Egypt, he is also the man who must confront the most famous exodus in history.

Sweeping in scope and meticulous in detail, The Heretic Queen is a novel of passion and power, heartbreak and redemption.

Fun Read. Phenomenal experience - a must read again book!

Enjoyed!. Was hesitant to read another version of Egyptian pharaohs, but characters really come alive! Pleased to learn of true events too!

AMAZIIIIIIIING!!!!. I read this for school and I loved it. At first, I didn't want to read it because it is historical fiction, but this book made historical fiction my favorite. I'm buying Nefertiti for Michelle Moran since it goes perfectly with this book. I started crying because..... the feels...... Two thumbs up!

Amazing !. Inspiring and moving story. If little Nefertari can overcome the obstacles, then all of us can do it! Strongly recommend readers to start from the previous book, Nefertiti, so that the story will be more well-rounded.

Intrigue, Romp and Romance in Ancient Egypt. A very satisfying historical novel focused on Egyptian Pharoah Ramses II and his wife Nefertari. Yes, the same couple from the movie, THE TEN COMMANDMENTS. But this story is not about Nefertari’s hatred of her husband/brother and hidden passion for Moses. That was, after all, a Hollywood fabrication. Instead, it’s about two people who grew up together and turned out to be soul mates. Beginning when Nefertari is six years old, the novel is full of court intrigue and political maneuvering. Lots of people want power and riches — including several high priestesses and high priests. At the book's beginning, Ramses is the son and obvious heir to Pharaoh Seti I. He soon becomes first co-ruler with his father and then lone Pharaoh, after his father’s death. Ramses, who is several years older than Nefertari, first marries Iset — a local beauty with not much else going on for her. But as Nefertari grows up, she benefits from an extensive education and a natural facility with languages and turns out to be both beautiful AND brainy. (It’s a bit of a feminist story.) Ramses obviously becomes captivated by his one time childhood friend. Iset and Nefertari begin as rivals. But circumstances soon show how valuable Nefertari’s knowledge is to the running of the country. And, as was true in history, Ramses and Nefertari turn out to be a true love match, even though he later goes on to add another five wives. If you have an interest in ancient Egyptian history, don’t miss this book. Though a work of fiction, as the author readily admits in the Afterword, it is based on research. And it’s full of the symbols and rituals known to be part of one of the most fascinating civilizations, featuring many of the monuments that can still be seen today.

Amazing!!. Couldn't have asked for more. Clean with beautiful prose.
