Memoirs of Cleopatra is one of the best novels that I have read so far.Margaret George has made a magnificent epic. It dealt about how the great Queen Cleopatra, Thea Philopator has struggled to maintain the freedom of Egypt and to fight for what was due to her son by Julius Caesar.
The novel has described many ancient Places, and indeed, it was hard to just imagine them all as I read. Thus, I took pains in researching how these places and people look liked.
