About this listen

 Global bestselling author of River God and The New Kingdom, Wilbur Smith, returns with the next epic book in his brand-new Ancient Egyptian series.

FROM THE RUINS OF BATTLE
A HERO MUST RISE
FOR THE GLORY OF EGYPT

Years of Hyksos rule have seen the plunder of once-mighty Egypt. Though the two kingdoms have now been reunited by the armies of the true Pharaoh, his position is perilous, his rule under threat from those who seek to take advantage of the turmoil created by the overthrow of the Hyksos. Desperate to keep Egypt united, Taita the Magus summons his protégé, Piay, to solve a millennia-old riddle which has the power to secure Egypt's future forever.

But in the tumult of war, an evil has thrived. Malevolent followers of Seth, the god of chaos, are determined to claim this power and usher in a new age of darkness.

The fate of Egypt is at stake. Can Piay prevent their land falling into the hands of those who would see its ruin?©2023 Wilbur Smith and Mark Chadbourn (P)2023 Bonnier Books UK Action & Adventure Ancient Fantasy Fiction Historical Historical Fiction Middle East Pharaoh Royalty Magic Users Africa Ancient History

WHY does Audible refuse to insert chapters in some books?! So annoying and makes me not want to bother listening to the book because I can never keep my bloody place. Seriously its over 20 hours with not a single chapter! Please stop doing this. It really makes the listening experience significantly less enjoyable and incredibly frustrating.

Great book of course but no chapters by Audible

This book isn’t written by Wilbur Smith, it’s closer to hitchhikers guide to the galaxy than river god, I enjoyed it but not what I paid for.

Interesting

Couple of times it seems like that it was waffling along with no story relevance but over all enjoyed can’t wait for the next one

Awsome

Dreadful hogwash written by a strange writer. Boring terrible pathetic and it completely ruined my memories of all the wonderful characters in Wilbur’s earlier Egyptian books. I wish I had not read the last two books as they have poisoned the series completely. I advise you not to read these. These last two Wilbur smith books are below acceptable standard of audible and they have ruined my enjoyment of audible by leaving such bad memories every time I think of audible.

It ruined my memory of the Egyptian series
