Taita, a freed slave and the Pharaoh?s closest advisor, must create a master plan to crush the kingdom?s historic enemy and return Egypt to its former glory. He must call on his powers as both tactician and warrior to lead a great army up the Nile, through Arabia to the magical city of Babylon, then across the open seas to Crete. This army will meet battle and betrayal head on. But their greatest challenge will not be found on the battleground and it will threaten not only Taita?s plan, but the very future of Egypt.* This is a VG++ copy of the 1st./1st. with absolutely minimal shelf wear & a few marks reducing it to VG.*
