Taita has survived slavery and loss to become a figure of extraordinary wisdom and mysterious power. Now Egypt faces a threat that even his formidable abilities cannot easily overcome. Lord Naja has installed himself as regent, while the rightful heir, young Prince Nefer, stands in the way of ruthless ambition. To protect the prince and preserve the dynasty of Queen Lostris, Taita must confront shifting alliances, rival rulers and armies poised for war. Chariot battles, court intrigue and dangerous journeys drive this epic adventure through an ancient world where political calculation meets the influence of the gods. Wilbur Smith combines historical spectacle with supernatural drama in a story of loyalty, survival and contested kingship.
