Abstract
An original historical-adventure novel for children on Ancient Egypt. It tells the tale of two children, the son of a great military figure and the daughter of the Pharaoh. The protagonists encounter kidnappers, assassins, and gods; but their greatest challenge is to forge their own identities in the shadow of their own powerful parents. Includes a discussion of how the novel was written.
