Praise for Adventures in Time: Cleopatra, Queen of the Nile

Few plots can rival the real-life dramas played out in the superb Adventures in Time series by the historian Dominic Sandbrook, one of the most exciting new voices in children's non-fiction.

Daily Telegraph

History and fiction meld in a spectacular new series retelling thrilling tales from past eras, all with the benefit of the latest research.

Financial Times

Fiction is seldom as thrilling as the real life adventures played out in Dominic Sandbrook's superb Adventures in Time stories ... In Cleopatra, we follow Egypt's most famous queen through a roller coaster of military battles and doomed love affairs.

The Oldie

A must-read for fans of Ancient Egypt and the Romans. This book is well-researched, detailed, nicely paced, and engaging... Sandbrook's Cleopatra is a well-rounded, inspirational figure with strengths, flaws, and true-to-life motivations - this book is a well-deserved fist-bump to this heroic female.

Imagining History

The latest book in Dominic Sandbrook's fastpaced, gripping and well researched Adventures In Time series tells the tumultuous story of the legendary Egyptian queen.
