Richard H Moon
In ancient Kemet, brothers Koshei and Tyfon are sworn to protect their homeland—but when the dead begin to walk, their world descends into nightmare.
Far to the north, a young girl named Doryah watches her mother's funeral twist into a nightmare-one that convinces her that only fire can keep the dead from rising.
Twenty years later, the brothers, now soldiers in Pharaoh's army, crush an invasion from across the Great Green Sea, but what they took to be invaders are refugees. Among the survivors, Doryah, hardened by flight and grief, bridges the divide of language and culture to give the brothers a warning: the dead are restless, and something ancient is calling to them.
Charged by Pharaoh to trace the source of the rising dead, Tyfon, Koshei, and Doryah embark on a perilous journey from the sun-scorched banks of the Nile to the burned shores of Achaea.
Together they uncover a truth older than empires, a game played by a god who has lost all mercy-where the cost of winning may be nothing less than their souls, their homelands, and the fragile balance of the world.
