I enjoy the time travel element in the story, a bit complicated but it was pretty well explained so it’s easy to understand and to follow the plot. 
 
The story is told in multiple POVs with a dual timeline (present and past times) and I really like reading when it’s in the past times where the main character was transported to ancient Egypt times - very interesting. 
 
At first I find it a little bit confusing and overwhelming with lots of characters and trying to understand how this world works with humans, gods and demi gods living together. 
I think I would’ve understand it better if there's a glossary inside or maybe if I read the previous series set in this universe since I found out that this one was a spin-off series. 
 
Overall, it’s still a pretty good read cause I was intrigued with the combination of Egyptian mythology and time travelling! 
I'll continue reading to the second book to find out more about the main characters power and romantic relationship!
