(3) YA This heavily fictionalized tale of Nefertiti creates a possible childhood and adolescence for the Egyptian royal. Friesner's protagonist is a goodhearted independent thinker surrounded by people in high places with low motives--and she's ready to take them on. Imbuing its speculations with somewhat modern sensibilities, the text attempts to flesh out characters that history has only sketched.
