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 evil of his stepmother and brother. Cast out and alone, Hui finds himself 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, Hui learns the art of war and becomes an envied charioteer. As Hui navigates this treacherous world, he finds himself in an even greater battle - one for the very heart of Egypt itself. With the help of the Egyptian General Tanus and the renowned Mage, Taita, Hui must choose his path: will he be a hero in the old world, or a master in a new kingdom? This epic tale of ancient Egypt is a gripping story of power, loyalty, and the struggle for survival.
