Hui is out to prove himself, tired of being mistaken for a child. Going to the haunted hills of the desert to collect the Ka Stone, filled with the essence of gods, from the Strikes, the deadliest bandits in Egypt, and prove his worth and begin his grand destiny. Until he makes a mistake, along with his brother's betrayal, that costs his best friend his life.
The story has exquisite detail, allows the reader to easily grasp the emotions of the characters, and already hints at the great Egyptian mythology that helps drive the plot. A story of coming of age and betrayal that jumps right into the action and pulls you in. If Hui can survive, he has a lot of hard decisions to make that will shape the man he is to become. I am excited to see what he decides and how his adventures turn out. I wonder what kind of man he will ultimately be.
