The Horus Chronicles

The Horus Scrolls - Marian Bayan, Professor of History at Cambridge University in England, is hired to translate an ancient Egyptiam scroll. The parchment lists a royal dynasty, that never was, and a murder. The Horus Women - As the new monarch in Kham (Egypt), Sobekkara Sobekneferu has two fears. One is that the nobles in her court would murder her, because after all, she is a woman on a man's throne. Her second fear is the rise of the warriors, a class with the training and means to topple the throne if they wished to. Sobekkara enlists the aid of a sau, an amulet maker, who curses the monarch's scepter. Any man who covets her throne will suffer its aftereffects.
