Terry Deary is a really good author who writes about history. He has written the very famous series of Horrible Histories and he has written another series of books called the Egyptian Tales as well as a series of Tudor Tales. This story is a fictional tale but it has an Afterword which explains all the Factual parts in the story and some of them are really interesting! The Egyptian Tales series (and the Tudor Tales series) are full of exciting and funny stories which are based on real events! I would absolutely, really rate this book 6/10 and I would recommend it to older readers aged from 7 - 11.
