Akhenaten : The Son of the Sun
(1986)(The first book in the Egyptian Sequence series)
A novel by Moyra Caldecott
I tell you this three millennia after these events took place. Mark them well. They did not end with my death, and they will not end with yours.
In ancient Egypt during the magnificent eighteenth dynasty the Pharaoh Akhenaten and his queen, the strong and beautiful Nefertiti, are engaged in a dramatic battle against the wealthy, corrupt and dangerously powerful priests of Amun.
Haunting and full of surprises, Akhenaten: Son of the Sun gives a fascinating glimpse into an ancient civilisation. It is a story about hate and love, despair and hope, but more than that it is the story of extraordinary spiritual and psychic powers being tested to their limits.
Akhenaten: Son Of The Sun is part of Moyra Caldecott's acclaimed Egyptian sequence, which also includes Hatshepsut: Daughter of Amun and Tutankhamun and the Daughter of Ra. The fourth book of the sequence, The Ghost of Akhenaten, is set in the present and carries on the theme. Chronologically, Akhenaten: Son of the Sun is the second in the sequence, although it was written first.
Genre: Fantasy
