They were just trying to save a cat. Now, the fate of Egypt is in their hands.
Aria and Liam never expected a simple act of kindness to land them in a 3,000-year-old kingdom. Stranded in the time of Ramesses II, they befriend Asim, a boy on a secret mission, and Atlas, a donkey who may be wiser than both of them combined.
What starts as an exhilarating journey down the Nile quickly turns into a race against time. Pharaoh’s kingdom is in danger, the gods are meddling, and enemies lurk in the shadows. Between high-speed chases, life-or-death riddles, and vengeful deities, Aria and Liam must use their wits, courage, and a little rule-breaking to save thousands of lives and change history for the better.
But even if they succeed, will they ever find a way home?
Blending history, humor, and heart-pounding adventure, this thrilling tale is perfect for readers aged 8 to 12 who love fast-paced quests and time-traveling twists!

❝ Oh man, this was so funny! A wise spiritual leader once told us that when you encounter someone who thinks they’re better than everyone else, just keep flattering them, and you’ll definitely get what you want. And you know what? It actually worked! But the best part was when we turned the tables and gave them a taste of their own medicine. It was epic! ❞
