Shadow Hawk

by Andre Norton is a great book. It's one of the best books I've ever read.

"'Lord Rahotep-?" There was a familiar slur softening that urgent call. Then a second voice, pitched low, but with the carrying snap of an officer, brushed aside the first inquiry.
'Rahotep! Brother!'
'Kheti'"

~From the Book~


This is a very exciting book. I recommend it for ages 10 and up. I LOVED this book.

Hittite Warrior

by Joanne Williamson is a good book.


"Something caught my eye. It was a movement behind one of the bales in the darkest corner of all, and my skin began to crawl. There was too much activity among the soldiers and, drawn by curiosity in spite of fear, I moved toward what I had seen."

The Pharaohs of Ancient Egypt

P.S. One of the greatest Egyptian generals was only FIVE FEET TALL.
