Here's what fans are saying about The Desert Queen Saga: "Amazing! Best book to date from Bullock yet. You get caught up in the characters and story almost from the first page. The book stands alone but definitely begs for the next book to come soon. Every character breathes from the moment they walk into a scene, and you can't help but be invested in the outcome of their lives. The desert of Egypt is just another bonus. You can feel the heat and the sand as you read, and the visits to the cool oases are just as soothing. This is worth your time. I finished it in one day."
