Book: When We Were Gods: A Novel Of Cleopatra Falconer recreates Cleopatra's life, but, more importantly, turns her into a fierce and vulnerable three-dimensional character of flesh and blood, whose every thought and emotion is vivid and believable.
In When We Were Gods, Colin Falconer's bold, sensuous prose brings to life the mysterious, glamorous Cleopatra as she really was: strong, ambitious, complicated, and a women well ahead of her time, wielding great power in a man's world. From her early ascent to the throne of Egypt to her passionate, politically tangled relationships with Julius Caesar and Mark Antony and her tireless battle to preserve her nation at all costs, we meet a fierce and vulnerable woman caught in a deadly world of imperial intrigue and warfare -- a world she would mesmerize and dominate.
