Child of the Morning by Pauline Gedge

2.0

This book didn't hold my attention well. It can't be easy to make something like ancient Egypt that uninteresting.

This would obviously be the fault of the publisher rather than the author, but the ebook copy I read was full of typos. Periods in the middle of sentences. Multiple sentences lacking any punctuation at all. Random misspellings were scattered throughout the book, including spelling Hatshepsut as Hafshepsut, and God as Cod.

I initially read this book because of the introduction by Michelle Moran, who is one of my favorite historical fiction authors. I recommend skipping this book altogether, and reading Moran instead.
