'A tale of travel and emotional journeys set against the exotic civilisation of Egypt before the time of the Pharaohs.

'Prince Narmer is fourteen and, as his father's favourite, destined to be King.

'Despite his father's warnings, Narmer loves to go hunting alone and one day he meets an 'oracle' not far from his home in Thisis. Although he doesn't realise at the time, this is a meeting that will change his life forever.'
