Belshazzar (novel)

Belshazzar is a historical novel by H. Rider Haggard set in Ancient Babylon.

[1][4] A trade paperback edition was issued by Wildside Press in March 2001.

[4] The Egyptian prince Ramose seeks to rescue his wife Myra from the King of Babylon.

[3] The Sydney Morning Herald, reviewing the novel, stated that "Rider Haggard was not in his best vein when he wrote this".

It added "The field is wide and the possibilities are tremendous when we are taken to the great Babylonian city, and he is a little disappointing in the picture painting when the description of its magnificence is called for".
