Neferura

The Pharaoh’s Daughter: A Novel

By: Malayna Evans

Narrated by: Machelle Williams

For fans of The Wolf Den and Kaikeyi comes the thrilling tale of the forgotten daughter of a legendary Egyptian pharaoh and the path she must take to escape her own dangerous fate.

There are many paths to power.

They all come with a price.

Neferura, princess and high priestess of Kemet, knows her duty is to her people. When your mother is the great Pharaoh, it is hard to forget. But Neferura's unique position at court comes with high stakes for her country, especially when she's forced to serve her vile half-brother, a man determined to stop Neferura's potential rise.

Peace, it seems, never lasts for women who wield power in the open. Especially when they cross a vengeful man.

When Neferura overhears Thutmose's plot to end her mother's rule, she knows he must be stopped, no matter the cost. The discovery of a mysterious tattooed wisewoman and her shadowy network of spies offers an uneasy alliance. But the wisewoman wields more power than Neferura knew possible—power with the potential to rival her own. Neferura must decide where her loyalties lie and how much she's willing to sacrifice to protect the people she loves before everything crumbles at the hands of a tyrant.

Rich history of strong women in ancient Egypt

A journey through the intricacies and mysteries of the ancient Egyptian world that I have never experienced before. Strong female characters and friendships are the foundation for this tale.

Depressing - it took 24 chapters to get to the point

Nope. Wanted a great Queen’s story and it was just so depressing and sad. There was barely a plot to the story.

good book if you are 10 years old

Definitely not Even a tween book so simplistic and not very realistic. it was like the writers of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles decided to do an Egyptian story.
