Synopsis

Seqenenra Tao, Prince of Weset, leads a revolt against the alien Hyksos pharaohs. His provincial aristocratic family is accustomed to a life of straitened gentility. But when the prince decides to rebel they must risk all, even life itself, to restore Egyptians and their gods to glory. The Hippopotamus Marsh begins a trilogy that brings to vivid life the passions and intrigues that ushered in the great Eighteenth Dynasty. Pauline Gedge is the author of eight novels, including Child of the Morning and Lady of the Reeds. She lives in Alberta, Canada.* "Fast moving and thrilling . . . Perhaps the best piece that Pauline Gedge has written." —Edmonton Journal
