The book was slow to get into and a little confusing with the characters relationships and names, but once I got into it, I found it interesting and the pace picked up.

Once I got past the names, I loved this book!!!! It was a beautiful love story that showed that good does overcome evil. The final chapters were action packed, and it was beautifully written.

This was a great book. We had read Nefertiti and decided to read this one, although you don't have to read Nefertiti it understand Heretic Queen. The story was great and different from the other book. I loved the history involved and the characters. It's differently a good read.

Don't let the title fool you; this queen is anything but heretic. She is awesome. I love the Michelle Moran books and I love the fact that this book is so different from her first book, Nefertiti. Great read.

Our bookclub read Nefertiti last year and enjoyed learning about Egyptian history through the book. It didn't feel like homework and you could really picture how these people lived. This book was chosen because it was the authors second book and we really enjoyed her first one. Sometimes that is a bad thing but in this case, I was pleasantly surprised that it was written completely different.

The book centered around Nefertari and Ramesses and their love story. Like the first book it took a while to get through the first few chapters getting the names straight, but once they moved Nefertari and broke her precious statue, the book took off.

I didn't realize it but there is a dictionary in the end of the book that is real helpful for the odd words that you will find. Also in the front of the book is a helpful listing of the "cast of characters".

This was the sequel to Nerftiti. It was an amazing love story with all the historic details you come to expect from Michelle Moran.
