Ramses the Damned

Viac o knihe

A pharaoh made immortal by a powerful elixir, Ramses the Great served as counselor and lover to Egypt's most influential rulers before awakening in Edwardian England. Having defeated both human and supernatural foes, he has found love with Julie Stratford, the daughter of the archaeologist who discovered his tomb. As a world war looms, Ramses and other resurrected immortals face their greatest challenge yet. Russian assassins, armed with immense power, are determined to eliminate those who loved Lawrence Stratford. These assassins wield a supernatural force that can animate statues. Ramses, along with allies like Cleopatra and Bektaten, must confront this threat while uncovering the origins of a great weapon linked to an ancient Egyptian ritual meant to humble pharaohs before Osiris, the god of the underworld. Their journey will take them across stormy seas and into northern Russia's forests, where they will navigate a terrifying clash of political ambitions and religious fervor driven by a Godlike power. The true answers they seek lie beyond the boundary between life and death, in realms that challenge even the imagination of an immortal like Ramses.
