Product Description

Young Huy is sent away from his farming family to attend a prestigious school for a chance at a better life as a scribe, but a sudden accident renders him unconscious and, to all appearances, dead.When his return to life makes him a pariah, ostracized by his visions of the deaths of those around him, Huy is soon apprenticed to a priest who believes Huy's power will enable him to interpret the Book of Thoth, and fame attracts the attention of the Pharaoh Amunhotep. Huy begins to realize that his power is not granted to him, but owns him, for he is no longer his own master. He is the King's Man.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Amunhotep, the early years, Sep 23 2008
This review is from: Twice Born (Paperback)
Twice Born is the first of a new trilogy about Huy, son of Hapu. Known in history as Amunhotep, he was a real and significant figure in Egypt whose achievements were inscribed and survive to this day. But his personal life and origins remain unknown. Pauline Gedge has imaginatively created this story of his early years and development into a seer. The story begins when Huy, son of Hapu, is barely four years old. We follow him through school with noble's children and friendship with the governor's son Thothmes, and his sisters. Well-written and full of fascinating details of the daily life and customs about food, drink, clothing, jewellry, oils and perfumes, medicines, games, funeral customs and much more, the story keeps us engrossed. Then a shocking transformation occurs following a fatal accident while he is still a boy that will determine his future fate. Some family and friends fear the changes in him while many of the common people and priests will revere him for his new powers of insight. Huy is a likeable person who longs for the simple life even while he knows he's been chosen to serve Egypt in a much greater capacity than the farmer's son he is. He will experience love and disappointment, struggling in the final years of his youth to accept his own destiny as Seer of Egypt. The readers in this family are waiting intently for the continuation of the story. No one does ancient Egypt like Pauline Gedge. Treat yourself and read it, I recommend it highly.
The second book of the trilogy is entitled Seer of Egypt and will be released in November 2008.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Pauline Gedge at her best, Avril 22 2009
Par Henri Thibodeau (Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
"The Twice Born" was a real treat for me as a long-time fan of Pauline Gedge. I fell in love with her historical fiction set in Ancient Egypt when I first read "House of Illusions" a few years back. I have since read most of her work, reveling in her vivid description of life in Ancient Egypt. She has a knack for bringing this ancient world back to life, making you feel as if you where there. However, I was somewhat disappointed with her "Lord of Two Lands" trilogy, which did not recapture for me the excitement I found in her earlier work. "The Twice Born" brought back the excitement I felt reading her previous books. My only thing criticism is her treatment of Huy, the main character, as a four-year old, which seemed a bit off; but still, this is definitely a page turner. I can't wait to read the second volume, "The Seer of Egypt". I recommend Pauline Gedge to anyone having an interest in historical fiction.
