It's around 701 BC and Egypt is being ruled by the Kushite dynasty. Young Prince Taharka, interested in healing, is content to be the very minor royal son he is and leave the ruling to others. However, it is he and not the expected Prince Shabataka who succeeds to the throne of Kush and Egypt--a 'divine' rulership--and he is no longer free to live his own life. Then a treacherous plot, forces him tpo flee for his life. Ages 10-up.
