Lord Of The Two Lands Trilogy by Pauline Gedge Pdf

Ancient Egypt is vividly brought to life in Pauline Gedge's internationally bestselling trilogy Lords of the Two Lands. The Hippopotamus Marsh Hundreds of years under the oppressive foreign rule of the Setiu have stripped Egypt of its majesty. Seqenenra Tao, Prince of Weset, the true heir of the double crown, is pained to see his estate deteriorate and longs to restore the royal bloodline to its former glory. King Apepa's merciless taunting and humiliating requests are a poor disguise for his contempt of the prideful Tao family and their independence. Cornered, the Prince of Weset must choose between complete submission to a foreign king or a daring uprising that is doomed to fail. Seqenenra Tao's shocking decision puts in motion a series of events that will either destroy his cherished home or resurrect a dynasty and an entire way of life for all of Egypt. The Oasis In The Oasis, the captivating second instalment of the trilogy, Kamose has inherited his father's insurgency against Apepa and begins his desperate sweep north for Egypt's freedom. Will his determination and savagery bring him victory or betrayal? And will his acts redeem him or drive him to the brink of madness? The Horus Road The Horus Road is the riveting conclusion of Pauline Gedge's three-volume epic, which chronicles the courageous and often tragic struggle of the Tao Princes to free their country from the foreign rule of the Setiu king Apepa. Ahmose vows to continue the struggle that took the life of his father and brother. It is up to him to devise a strategy to capture the Setiu capital, Het-Uart, in order to free Egypt once and for all. But the devious Apepa will stop at nothing, no matter how ruthless, to rob the Tao family of its chance for total victory. Military might alone will not be enough for Ahmose to breach the city's walls. He will need a miracle from Amun.

Ancient Egypt is an occupied land, a nation usurped by foreigners called the Setiu, better known to history as the Hyksos, who have gradually taken over a weakened government in a bloodless invasion through commerce and political power. Controlling the country for over two hundred years through a superior military force, the Setiu Kings plunder the land and slowly subvert its religion and culture. Finally one family of the true Egyptian blood is prepared to make a stand to claim back the authority which is rightfully theirs.

When his family's lands, their people and their very lives are threatened by the Setiu King Apepa, Seqenenra is forced to make a choice between persecution and submission or a rebellion that will change the history of Egypt forever.

Lord of the Fire Lands by Dave Duncan Pdf

“Exceptional . . . Duncan can swashbuckle with the best, but his characters feel more deeply and think more clearly than most” (Publishers Weekly). Raider and Wasp have spent five years at Ironhall studying to become Blades, expert swordsmen whose talents stand unmatched. Magic both enhances the Blades’ fighting skills and binds them to lifelong duty. But when Raider and Wasp are selected to protect the king of Chivial himself, they refuse, an act unprecedented in the living history of the Blades. Now on the run for their “treasonous” act, the two gifted swordsmen must escape to the Fire Lands, where pirates, monsters, and mixed allegiances wait around every corner. As old hatreds and still‐fresh tragedies come to light, these young swashbucklers must confront both harsh truths from the past and a present swarming with their would‐be brothers at arms seeking vengeance and intending punishment. Dave Duncan’s Lord of the Fire Lands serves as a splendid sequel and companion to his earlier book The Gilded Chain, and his later Tale of the King’s Blades Sky of Swords. Engaging and complex, it may be enjoyed as a standalone novel or in combination with the rest of the trilogy. Either way, readers are in for a smart, thrilling adventure that cuts like a knife.

Bestselling author Pauline Gedge takes readers on a thrilling voyage to ancient Egypt in the stunning King's Man Trilogy. The Twice Born Young Huy is sent away from his farming family to attend a prestigious school for a chance at a better life as a scribe, but a sudden accident renders him unconscious and, to all appearances, dead. His return to life makes him a pariah, ostracized by his visions of the deaths of those around him. But Huy is soon apprenticed to a priest who believes Huy's power will enable him to interpret the Book of Thoth—and Huy's newfound fame attracts the attention of the Pharaoh Amunhotep. Huy begins to realize that his power is not granted to him, but owns him, for he is no longer his own master. He is the King's Man. Seer of Egypt Huy has risen from lowly origins to become the Seer to the King. Yet Amunhotep's patronage is both a blessing and a curse to Huy, who feels imprisoned by his psychic gift and the life he must live to keep it. Though rewarded with wealth and influence, he longs for the pleasures enjoyed by those around him, especially love, which seems forever lost to him. But when the King calls for his help, Huy has no choice. The life he knew is coming to an end, but his contribution to Egyptian history is just beginning. The King's Man Twelve-year-old Amunhotep III has ascended the throne to become king of the richest empire on earth. The boy's mother is regent, and she has brought to court the renowned seer, Huy, son of a humble farmer, to act as scribe and counsel to her royal son. It's a position of power and responsibility, one that is fraught with intrigue and the lure of corruption. For it is Huy who controls the treasury, the military, and all construction and taxation—and perhaps most important, it is Huy who chooses the young Pharaoh's queen. His actions and premonitions, as well as his legendary past, make him very few friends and a great many enemies...
