I look forward to seeing how this novel connects these historical people and events. Thank you for your thorough review and recommendation, and congrats on BOTD.

I’m relatively new to historical fiction, but it’s quickly becoming one of my favorites thanks to books like these! It sounds like it stays relatively accurate while still being interesting and easy to follow! Great review!

Roman empire and details of notable figures in one book. I will love to read this book, and I believe that Caspar had a lot to contend with. Thanks for your honest review.

I haven't read about Cleopatra I would like to read about the legendary Cleopatra so thanks for sharing your thoughts about the book I will add it to my bookshelves and I have downloaded the sample so that I don't forget.

This historical fiction novel set around the BCE-CE era based on true facts and people sounds fascinating. Great review!

Caspar is caught in many conflicts under the Roman kingdom. I don't have much knowledge about Cleopatra. Though I'm not a fan of historical fiction, I would give this book a read for its plotline. Thanks for the review. Congrats on the BOTD!

This is a historical fiction that brings the Roman Empire, some aspects from Cleopatra's story, with a lot of adventures, some romance, and lots of history too. The story of Caspar seems to have changed a lot after he received an invitation to see the queen. Congrats on BOTD to the author! Thanks for the review!

Caspar: Last of the Magi by Fred Fraikor has a great plotline and character formation. I would like to know how the Roman empire was run during the reign of Caesar Augustus. Congratulations on #BOTD.

The story looks into the politics and power struggle of ancient Egypt and the Roman Empire. It seems to revive interest in prominent historical and biblical figures. Congratulations on Book of the Day!

I love historical novels and will look for this one at a later date.

Thank you for your review. Some historical fiction I like, but not usually that far back in time. I was going to say I'll pass on this one, but after reading your review, I will have to think about it now.

Though a tale of historical fiction about the Roman Empire and Cleopatra, it unfolds the crafty aspects of the powerful and how they managed to keep the reign in their hands.

I'm quite particular in which history novels I read. I don't think this will be something I'll enjoy though. I'm sure this will be a great novel for those whom love reading about Romans. Thanks for the review.

From the onset of the story, being a historical fan; consider me sold on this book; "Caspar: Last of the Magi". The reviewer has done an excellent job of giving away just enough to make this even more enticing...As enticing as the beautiful and intelligent Thah or the young, handsome and naïve Caspar. I look forward to enjoying the unfolding of a story detailing the most spoken of Roman Queen; Cleopatra. Congratulations to the author, the reviewer and the book of the day for another fantastic historical piece.
