River god,Brilliant October 10, 2008
Someone lent me this book to read because they liked it,it was the start of a long long reading experience, I just couldn't put it down and I ended up reading the whole series.Anyone who doesn't like it must lack imagination of this epic story.Totally loved it.
One of my favourite books of all time August 28, 2008
A cleverly written book that will make you think you're reading fact not fiction. The real life settings supported by the obvious extensive research that the author has undertaken.
Read this then read "The Seventh Scroll". Truly enchanting and gripping stuff!

I returned from a Nile Cruise captivated by the history of Egypt and someone leant me a copy of The Quest. On examination I discovered that this was the 4th of a series, so embarked on a journey starting with River God. This is the first Wilbur Smith book I've read and I was impressed. A good story, well written and from what I can make out from my limited knowledge, historically accurate. At 672 pages, a fairly long read, so will probably leave it a couple of books before I resume my journey with The Seventh Scroll. But still looking forward to it.
Best book, EVER. May 16, 2008

I love this book to distraction! This book has taught me so much about life in Ancient Egypt, love, war and people in general.
I cannot emphasise enough how good this book is, this should be a compulsory read for everyone. This book will stay with you long after you have finished it, which sounds a little cliche but has never been truer for any book that I've read.

My words here won't do this book justice! The story is told by Egyptian slave, Taita. He tells the turbulent story of his mistress, Lostris, and her lover, Tanus. The attention to detail is incredible and you really get to love and hate the characters accordingly. Wilbur Smith is a master storyteller. The author's note at the back of the book is also very intriguing!
