In the golden heat of Khetara, rebellion smolders and ancient gods stir. As whispers of the pharaoh's illness spread, a long-forgotten oracle begins to awaken―binding a princess, a priestess, a rebel, and a thief to the fate of an empire.
His Face Is the Sun is the start of a sweeping YA fantasy trilogy inspired by Ancient Egypt. Perfect for readers who devour the lush worlds of Leigh Bardugo, the mythic depth of Roshani Chokshi, and the high-stakes emotion of Sabaa Tahir.
The kingdom is cracking, and four lives are about to collide:
Sita, a princess who uncovers a betrayal powerful enough to destroy the royal court.
Neff, a young priestess burdened by divine visions that predict devastating destruction.
Rae, a farmer's daughter sharpened by injustice and poised to tear down her oppressors.
Karim, a tomb robber whose discovery in the desert awakens an ancient enemy.
Drawn together by unseen forces, these chosen four must decide what they're willing to sacrifice when power demands blood.
