Cleopatra

Based on the novel by Stacy Schiff, this is a new take on the life of the Egyptian queen. The book will present Cleopatra as a firm ruler and military tactician who embarked on a ruthless rise to power. Cleopatra twice married brothers, killing each of them as well as a sister. Romantic alliances with the much-older Roman honchos Julius Caesar and Marc Antony helped her solidify power, but her dalliance with Antony undid both of them.

Schiff has made a seven-figure publishing deal for Cleopatra with Little Brown and will complete the book in 2009.
