Description

In the heart of ancient Egypt, a new power is rising. Hui, the favoured son of a doting father, is destined for greatness, but his fate is set in motion by the sinister forces of those around him. His stepmother, the great sorceress Ipsetnofret, and his own brother Qen orchestrate a downfall that leaves Hui a captive of the Hyksos, a skilled and powerful army of outlaws. Determined to seek vengeance for the death of his father and rescue his sister, Ipwet, Hui swears his allegiance to these enemies of Egypt. Through them, he learns the art of war and becomes an envied charioteer. But as the pieces fall into place, Hui finds himself in an even greater battle - one for the very heart of Egypt itself. With the Egyptian General Tanus and renowned Mage, Taita, by his side, Hui must choose his path: will he be a hero in the old world, or a master in a new kingdom?
