G. A. Henty Book Reports

Title: The Cat of Bubastes

Author: G. A. Henty

What Type of Book: Historical Fiction

Setting: Ancient Egypt

Main Character Names: Amuba, Jethro, Amusis, Thotmes, Chebron, Mysa, Ameres, Ruth, and Moses

Describe the main character: Amuba is Prince of the Rebu who gets taken to Egypt to be a slave. After a long adventure he gets back to his people and gets crowned king.

The story begins with a battle between the Rebu and Egyptians. The Rebu defend their city and get defeated. Amuba gets taken with 99 other slaves to Egypt. Amuba has a lot of adventures but it would take too long to tell so I suggest that you read the book. Amuba escapes Egypt and gets the Rebu throne.

I learned that the Egyptians were almost defeated in battle.

I really liked the battles.

I didn’t like when they were taken prisoners.

I wonder why they didn’t hold the shore at the battle in the city.

I would recommend this book because it is Exciting History.
