Cleopatra

Cleopatra, who lived in the first century BCE, was one of the most extraordinary, enigmatic and exceptionally beautiful personalities in the history of the world. She was equally ambitious and cunning. Through the irresistible allure of her beauty, she drew some of the most powerful rulers of her time into her sphere of influence.

These included the great Greek general Pompey the Great, the mighty Roman emperor Julius Caesar, and his successor Mark Antony. By using her relationships with these powerful men, she not only secured her position as the Empress of Egypt but also made determined efforts to bring the very Roman Empire, whose support had helped her ascend the throne, under her own influence.

Of course, her journey was far from easy. She repeatedly had to put her life at risk and endure periods of exile. She also had to overcome countless tragedies and betrayals.

This novel, based on the life of Cleopatra, is now being presented to readers in an exceptionally beautiful edition.
