Cleopatra's DaughterCleopatra's Daughter by Michelle Moran

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


This is the first of Moran's novels that I've read and I'll admit that I was a bit apprehensive after reading the first chapter. However, with the introduction of the warrior Prince Juba - Moran had me at hello. I was immediately drawn by his affections for the oblivious and stubborn Selene but disappointed by the rushed development of their relationship at the end of the novel. Yet Moran's re-envisioning of Rome completely made up for it. If one doesn't feel transported to the former empire then I suggest they request the manuscript be converted to screenplay because it doesn't get any better than "Cleopatra's Daughter".
