The New Kingdom is the seventh novel in the Ancient Egypt series which I was not aware of prior to reading it. That being said, I believe that it can be read as a standalone book as I was not overly confused but did feel like there were some elements that I was missing by not having read the other books. There were so many characters in this novel that at one point which can be very confusing to some readers as there are times where one character name was mentioned, and I wasn’t completely sure of who they were talking about. The pace wasn’t very fast or slow but there were times at the beginning that I realized that I was going slow because I was wanting to make sure that I had all the characters right in my mind. Page count wise it wasn’t a very long book coming over at less than 500 pages but part of me wishes there was more. I really wanted more mystery and something that really captured my attention but sadly there wasn't. Overall, it was a solid read and maybe it just wasn't for me.
