| Publisher Description: HORUS is a science fiction novel which received a Special Jury Mention in the 2102 UPC Awards. A novel which unites Ancient Egypt, space exploration and biotechnology. Geneticist Ted Howard has spent the past four years working hard, obsessing over the idea of bringing the extinct Siberian mammoth back to life. His sister, archaeologist Nancy Howard, is on the team that has just discovered a burial chamber beneath Khafre's pyramid. If anyone told them that the cargo spaceship Antipodes had detected an enormous vessel beyond the orbit of Mars, both would respond in the same way: "Extra-terrestrial spaceships have nothing to do with me." Miquel Barcel said about HORUS: "It's such a shocking ending that I was still turning it over in my mind five months after I finished reading it." |
