![]() ![]() Wilbur Smith was born in Central Africa in 1933. Taita must be set free, Utteric must be stopped, and Egypt must be reclaimed. To a good man like Rameses, there is no choice. With Taita's imprisonment, Rameses is forced to make a choice: help Taita escape and forsake his brother, or remain silent and condone Utteric's tyranny. Pharaoh Utteric is young, weak, and cruel, and threatened by Taita's influence within the palace- especially his friendship with Utteric's younger and worthier brother, Rameses. Tamose is dead and a poisonous new era has begun. ![]() ![]() But upon his victorious return to Luxor, Taita is seized and branded a traitor. With the timely arrival of an old ally, the tide is turned and the Egyptian army feasts upon its retreating foe. The ex-slave, now general of Tamose's armies, is never more ingenious than when all hope is dashed. Taita prepares for the enemy's final, fatal push. ![]()
