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 . . .

Quotes by Wilbur Smith
From WikiquoteSomething always dies when the lion feeds — and yet there is meat for those that follow him.
"When a traveller gets a thorn in his foot," Mbejane went on softly, "and he is wise, he plucks it out — and he is a fool, he leaves it and says, 'I will keep this thorn to prick me so that I will always remember the road upon which I have travelled.' Nkosi, it is better to remember with pleasure than with pain."
Beware of your most implacable enemy — yourself.
