| Publisher Description: For Ramses, the Son of Light, the coronation hour has arrived. Now he will learn whether the friends of his youth -- people like Moses and the aging Greek poet, Homer -- can truly be trusted. Shaanar, the young king's scheming older brother, still has designs on the crown, and in the shadows, the machinations of a mysterious sorcerer threaten the throne. But royal plots are only part of the new monarch's concerns: Even as he and his bride construct the greatest temple the world has ever known, Egypt's borders are threatened by the hated Hittites. "It's Dallas or Dynasty in Egypt, with a hero, beautiful women, plenty of villains, new development every two pages, brothers fighting for power, magic, enchantments, and historical glamor". -- Liberation |
