This is the second in Holleman's series about Cleopatra and the first that I have read. That was no barrier as the backstory is outlined and the plot is so rapid that the reader is grabbed from the beginning. I particularly liked the idea of telling the story from the perspective of the two siblings, Ptolemy and Arsinoe, rather than just a third person narrative. Whilst aware of the history I liked this approach as it humanised a tale of scandal and betrayal. ( )
