This book helps with the ideology of growing up being a process that occurs over a long period of time. I found that it has helped me with many essay I had to write on this topic. The story itself is composed in a fantastic way which helps the read dive into the world of Nefer-seti. The story is sad with the way some characters have been finished off and the plot is of a great epic.
I must admit that I am green with envy by the way the story is a great hit and wish that I some day can write in the way wilbur smith is able to. The book has open my eyes to the way many people are treated in their lives and wish that it my never happen to me or to any people that I love.
Well done Wilbur Smith and keep up the great work.
