Treasure of EgyptHold on to your seat! This is a fast paced, action-packed romantic adventure. Journey to the land of the pharaohs in this lighthearted tale, where the search for lost treasure digs up more than a little danger.In the year 1863, a time when the whole world was seeking Egypt's secrets, an ancient map, leading to the greatest treasure known to man, resurfaces. As luck would have it, Lord Alecsian Brighton wins the mottled old scrap of parchment in one of London's most notorious gaming hells, along with its ominous curse. Despite the allure of treasure, Alec has no real interest in gallivanting across the Egyptian countryside in order to find it. He isn't even persuaded by his friend and cohort, Samuel's enthusiastic zeal. It is only his mother's escalating interest in his marital status that gives an extended vacation sudden appeal.The mysteries unfold as tantalizing clues sweep us across two continents, from wild runaway carriage rides, to action packed chase scenes through the streets of Alexandria. When our lost lords are captured by Bedouin tribesmen, Samuel barters for their freedom. It seems like the perfect solution... marrying Alec off to the Plague of Egypt... and that is only the beginning!This book explores the wonders of Egypt, where the mysteries hidden within the pyramids and temples which have tantalized us for two thousand years are finally revealed. Journey through ancient Egypt, explore a hidden tomb, experience the twelve hours of the Amduat, and discover the answer to one of the greatest mysteries of the ancient world, the origins of the Sphinx, as well as several hieroglyphic symbols which have remained either misidentified or unknown altogether. . . .

Open Up Your Egyptian Treasure Box! Enter a world where gods and goddesses bring about the most mysterious of worlds, where a lasting kingdom is formed and a legendary empire follows; where myths are told that echo throughout centuries and beyond: The treasure that is Egyptian mythology is an undeniable pleasure to read. Explore another world of ancient times, never to be forgotten. The motifs of the famous Egyptian tales are similar to that of many other mythologies: Magic is a handy way to explain the extraordinary; the heroes are larger-than-life, as they are quite literally the gods that bring about the nature of the universe; harrowing journeys are undertaken; the underworld is as real as this world, and the afterlife must be carefully prepared for; battles are fought and empires are forged. The Egyptians were one of the most successful empires in history, and their legacy survives because their traditions and texts were preserved in the most elaborate tombs created by civilization. We can see the Egyptian evolution from warring tribes, to a unified kingdom, to a triumphant and long-lasting empire through the thread of their treasure trove of myths and tales. This book can take you through that journey, beginning with an overview of the Egyptian peoples and cultures, and into an understanding of their pantheon of gods and goddesses, to beautiful and haunting tales of creation and ritual, and into a glimpse into who these peoples actually were via the stories they held dear. Some specific elements you will encounter: - Some of the main gods of the Egyptian pantheon, with all their quirks and foibles - The beauty of the devotion of Isis to the tragic god Osiris and their son Horus - The lasting devotion to animal heroes-from Anubis the Jackal to Bastet the Cat - One of the most complex and fascinating stories of Creation-Maat and Time - The everlasting brilliance of the ultimate Sun God, Ra - The making of the pharaohs-from kings to divine beings - Mystical ritual and unending cycle of life-from Osiris to the Book of the Dead - The devotion to death and the devourers of light - The unfailing devotion in all daily life to the preservation of balance and harmony - A glimpse into all of the myriad ways that Egyptian culture and its mythology still yet influence our world today Egyptian mythology is diverse and fascinating, offering us an insight into how ancient people believed and lived, what they valued and vilified, and how they existed and thrived. Finally, if you have enjoyed these treasured tales of Egyptian mythology, don't forget to explore the other fantastic realms of mythological magic in this series of books: Treasures of Egyptian Mythology, Treasures of Norse Mythology, Treasures of Roman Mythology, and Treasures of Greek Mythology. You will find yourself in awe of the sweeping scope of history and culture represented by these mythological traditions, as well as have a better understanding of how we continually make and re-make these myths for our own times.
