From Prison to Power A Tale of Intrigue and Adventure in Ancient
Times Paul Duevel says, "In his "Scroll of Naska Series" author
Martin Shapiro transports the reader to the Middle East of 1600 BC.
I found myself quickly caught up in the fascinating culture of
these Biblical times and places, and was reluctant to put it down
for fear of breaking the spell. Naska's story is filled with
passion, cunning and violence. Life in this era was not for the
meek, and Shapiro captures this essence with many scenes of love,
hate and revenge. I can't wait for the next in the series " The
Pharaoh's government is in transition. Joseph is appointed Grand
Vizier to prepare Egypt for the coming famine. His surprise
elevation suddenly demotes others. Enemies lurk. Then High Priest
Haroun dies. The Karnak Temple is in turmoil. Men of vision see
opportunities and threats. Conspiracies abound. Some seek power,
some fortune. Others seek the return of pride. Power and fortune
have no greater rival than pride. Joseph Reigns continues our
incredible journey through the translation of Shapiro's Scroll of
Naska, an imagined pre-biblical text, discovered in Iraq during
Operation Desert Storm. This Scroll, dictated by Naska, the
Midianite that bought Joseph as a slave from his brothers, offers
new details of this well-known story after 3600 years of darkness
and mystery. Witness the drama, Ride in the action, Revel in the
romance, Wince at the cruelty, Laugh at the humor. Life was as it
is today The truth might surprise you.
