But when Isis and Hopi uncover a plot by a villainous tax collector, they need to ensure that justice is done . . .

Jonathan never intended to be hunted down by a madman working for an evil Egyptian god. All he wanted was to be an Egyptologist like his dad. But that fateful day nine years ago when he found the scarab changed everything. Now his father is missing, and Jonathan has no choice but to head back to Egypt to find him. But the journey will be dangerous, especially with Set, the God of Storms and Chaos, hunting him. Even with his protector, the God Khepri, tucked inside the scarab, ready to emerge whenever Jonathan rubs the small beetle, Jonathan doesn’t feel entirely safe. But he knows he must do this, not only for his father, but also for himself, to prove he is more than just his father’s son. Enlisting the help of his best friend Nathan, Jonathan heads to the last site his father worked at, only to discover yet another mystery—someone has stolen the camp’s newly found artifacts. Could whoever kidnapped his father be behind the thefts too? With new friends and new vigour, Jonathan sets out to find his father, recover the missing artifacts, and proclaim his independence.

"The patience and the nicety of M. Fabre?s observations are indeed amazing. His eyes see, and they see magical marvels." ---- Daily ExpressConsidered "The Homer of Insects," Fabre's work laid the foundation for virtually all subsequent work in the field of entomology. Jean-Henri Fabre (1823-1915) is well known for his popularization of insect natural history, especially in the ten volumes of Souvenirs Entomoligiques. Although a reclusive amateur, with no scientific training, he was an acute observer of insect behavior. He combined his observations (most made in his own backyard) with a humanistic writing style that made his books popular, at least later in his life; during most of his life, the successive volumes of Souvenirs Entomologiques attracted only mild attention. Fabre was 84 when the last volume appeared, and soon afterward he was "discovered." He was elected to numerous scientific societies, provided a government pension, and even the President of France came to visit him. . .

Jean-Henri Fabre was a famous French entomologist whose observations of insects were praised - this examination of various beetles is characteristic of his meticulous yet engrossing descriptions. Fabre's greatest talent was rooted in his genuine passion for entomology; a natural ability to observe the quirks and habits of small creatures, and describe them to others in a plain but lively way. As demonstrated in this book, he wrote about insects as if they were his friends - seeing their lives play out, it is thus that qualities of biography are found alongside the scientific value of this work. In life, Fabre met with backlash for his unique style - formal schools, whom he in turn criticized for dryness of tutoring - considered his books long-winded, or even frivolous. Nevertheless he managed to connect atmospheric pressure to the behavior of certain insects, while contemporaries such as Charles Darwin held Fabre in high esteem, to the point of finding his studies inspirational.
