Ancient Egypt intrigue: Queen's resilience fuels liberation.

"The War Of The Crowns" offers an immersive dip into 17th century B.C. Egypt, where Queen Ahhotep's struggle against the Hyksos radiates with the fiery spirit of defiance. You'd appreciate this if you enjoy tales of underdogs, where pivotal historical moments are woven into human sagas of resilience and strategic warfare. Christian Jacq's knack for breathing life into the dusty corridors of the past guarantees a compelling read for lovers of historical fiction and strong female protagonists.

Description

17th century B.C. The barbaric Hyksos have taken possession of the whole of Egypt, imposing their harsh rule with unimaginable cruelty. Only Queen Ahhotep resists. Not far from Thebes, the only city which retains its independence, she has established a secret military base to train the soldiers who will one day set her country free. Heading an increasingly powerful army, Ahhotep steals victory after victory, in spite of the treacherous behaviour of a handful of 'collaborators'. From south to north, the Egyptians begin to re-group, becoming stronger by the day - and the occupying forces no longer seem quite so invincible. But are Ahhotep and her followers being lured into the most elaborate of traps...?
