Publisher Description
Murder, mystery, and magic in a land reminiscent of ancient Egypt.
For centuries, guided by the Destiny's Oracle, the Bera-Bera tribe have guarded the secret of the windflowers and kept alive the memory of the banished Cat Goddesses. The High Priest Seraphis covets Pharaoh's throne and his minions scour the desert sands, seeking two ancient artefacts of unrivalled power. If the Raia priesthood acquire the Golden Scarab and the Pyramidion first, then the land of Keymett will be plunged into a regime of terror and persecution, condemning the goddesses into exile forever. The race is on, but how can a small band of pygmies, a tomb robber, and a magically untrained girl on the run from the Ferrasium’s killing arena compete against the might of the Priesthood?
First reader review - "I read a lot of fantasy! I'm rating this new author up there with one of my other favourites Juliet Marillier. I love the fast pace, it has you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. I couldn't put it down (sorry family). Can't wait for book 2!!!"
NB: Contains adult themes.
Customer Reviews
Ferrasium
This book started well, but I put it down once I hit a page which had 4 grammatical and spelling errors on it. I am an English teacher and it is really off-putting . There were consistent errors in vocab that kept popping up. It needs a good editor.
Compelling
This book (first of a trilogy) is a fine fantasy thriller set in an indistinct time reminiscent of ancient Egypt. It was a compelling read, I read it in two sessions and am hungry for more!
Hopefully given the number of loose ends at the end of book one they will be returned to in book 2.
I'm looking forward to more from this author.
Edit: just read number two. Very good, better than the first, couldn't put it down. Looking forward to it being on iBooks soon.
