Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)From the first sentence of 'The Scribe' I felt myself transported to a different world. Its language, its cinematic scene changes, the grandeur and squalor of its settings, the mystery and costume of the characters who inhabit it--including actual figures from history--kept me in thrall, quite apart from the dramatic happenings which determine the direction of its astonishing story line. Along the way I absorbed an intimate knowledge of ancient Egyptian life, of its beliefs, and of the character traits and skills required of its royalty and their acolytes.
When I reached the end I felt reluctant to leave the world that had so charmed me; my impulse was to turn back and begin reading again.
Kudos to Bettye Hughes for her achievement!
