Before I start this Review I just wanna say that the Pharaoh guy in this book is a real Sucky doche bag, rapist.
My friend Grace got this from the Library because they didn't want it so I decided to read it.
The Divine son of Ra is about a girl named Serena. Standing out with her unusually golden hair and deep blue ayes in a land of dark skin and hair. She attracted the attention of the Pharaoh. His name is Ramses I think. Anyway so Serena becomes his personal slave and her brother sent to work in the mines. That didn't sit well with me at all. I felt deeply sorry for Serena, poor girl and I instantly hated the Pharaoh. But my friend grace thinks he is nice.
Anyway I think the story was great! It was entertaining to read with romance and sadness. Besides the stupid ass Pharaoh guy I enjoyed reading the book. At times it was really sad but army ones it was great as well. The perfect combo.
