She is omnivorous. No matter age or appearance, physical frailty or
imperfection. It is not their flesh that feeds her appetites but their
souls. She devours young and old, men and women. She leaves only a
desiccated husk.
An unspeakable evil. An impossible gift.
Renowned magus Taita is now over 100 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, brought about by the fire witch Eos, an
ancient force of sheer evil.
Taita must risk his soul to battle against Eos, 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....
The fourth book in the epic Egyptian series.
