| Summary, etc. |
In the Valley of the Kings, a team of archaeologists has unearthed a secret that has lain buried for over 3000 years. Hidden in Nefertiti’s tomb is a bundle of papyrus sheaves. Although badly decayed, the documents have survived well enough to tell an epic tale of war, murder and treachery…<br/>Thuya is a woman who craves greatness. Her son, Aye, is a man who will stop at nothing to attain it. Together they will concoct a scheme so monumental that it will mould the reigns of Egypt’s kings and rewrite the future of the known world.<br/>The Maya Papyrus is populated with some of the most extraordinary characters in history: Tutankhamun, the boy king; his father, Akhenaten, the deformed tyrant; Akhenaten’s queen, Nefertiti, whose beauty remains legendary three millennia later.<br/>Who among them can stand against a man willing to risk everything to achieve immortality? |

"Thoroughly enjoyable and deeply satisfying, The Maya Papyrus is an exceptional novel from an author who deserves your appreciation. It is recommended without reservation!"<br/>BookViral.com<br/>"The Maya Papyrus is an astonishingly well-crafted novel. Coady's Egypt - and Egyptians - come to breathtaking life. A massive cast of wholly believable characters drawn straight from the pages of history, a palpable setting, and a plot full of tension and bleak surprises seamlessly interweave to make this one of the best historical novels I've read in a very long time."<br/>L. M. Ironside, author of The Sekhmet Bed and The Crook and Flail: "A novel that no history fan can put down though the dishes go unwashed and sleep is elusive for several days...a very enjoyable book, and extremely hard to put down."
