  1. Nandini –

    The historical context was fascinating! I liked learning about Nubians and their culture. A slow burn.

  2. Sudeep Khurana –

    A vividly imagined world! The descriptions were fantastic. The plot meandered a bit at times, but it held my attention.

  3. Era Dhingra –

    I couldn’t get into this one. The writing style didn’t resonate with me. I didn’t finish it.

  4. Yashika –

    I absolutely loved the prose! Zuleika’s journey was captivating. Some parts felt a little slow, but overall a great read.

  5. Rishi Prasad Agrahari –

    A wonderful read! I really enjoyed the author’s writing style. The characters were interesting, and the plot was engaging.

  6. Stuti Seth –

    An interesting concept, but the execution fell a bit flat for me. I didn’t find Zuleika particularly compelling.

  7. Nipun Mehrotra –

    A beautifully written story that transported me to Roman Britain! Zuleika is a character I won’t soon forget.

  8. Tanmay Kumar Sarkar –

    While I loved the premise, the story felt underdeveloped. Zuleika’s experiences felt glossed over, which was disappointing.

  9. Shiwangi –

    This book was beautiful. The descriptions are so vivid and really transport you to Roman Britain. I highly recommend this!

  10. Akif M –

    I had high hopes, but I was left disappointed. The characters lacked depth. It was a bit hard to get into.

  11. Shradha Chhatwal –

    I found the plot confusing and the writing style convoluted. I would not recommend it.

  12. Charu –

    A unique perspective, but I struggled to connect with Zuleika. The historical details were interesting. I was expecting more though.
