AN ENEMY UNLIKE ANY OTHER
THE GREAT KINGDOM OF EGYPT ON THE BRINK OF RUIN
CAN THE ANCIENT MAGE TAITA SAVE HIS HOMELAND, BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE?

Renowned magus Taita is now over a hundred years old and has ascended to a new level of wisdom and understanding about his world. But he must prepare himself for the biggest threat Egypt has ever faced: the great plagues and the failure of the Nile.

Taita must find the cause before Egypt is ruined, but he has no idea of the terrible enemy that awaits him: the fire witch Eos, an ancient force of sheer evil. Taita must risk his soul to battle her, or his homeland and everything he has ever loved will be lost forever. But there are other reasons for Taita to fight - since success could also mean rewards he could never have thought possible .
