‘Secrets of A Sun King‘ is a thrilling and convincing novel. There is so much to take from it. Somehow, Emma Carroll convinces us of the heat and newly independent Egyptian setting, while in England, we feel a lingering post- Great War sense of bereavement. The letters constructed through Lysandra, offer a glimpse of the young Sun King, so we have an impression of the youth and probably vulnerability of the pharaoh behind the gold mask. We recommend ‘Secrets Of A Sun King’ highly. We love this book.
