Product Description

San Francisco Examiner

"Gedge has the talent to resurrect [ancient Egypt] and give it life in all its barbaric brilliance." --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

Book Description

In this second volume of the Lords of the Two Lands trilogy, Kamose, austere eldest son of the slain Tao prince Seqenenra, assumes leadership of the Egyptian rebellion against the foreign Hyksos rulers and begins a perilous sweep north, up the river Nile, toward the delta strongholds of his enemy, the Pharaoh Apepa. Supported by his brothers and the women of his family, Kamose makes a desperate effort to vanquish his powerfully entrenched enemies, to save his family, to liberate his country, and to restore the native gods of Egypt to their former glory. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

2.0 out of 5 stars Better thanthe first book, Jul 14 2004

By	Cheryl (Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Oasis: Lord of the Two Lands: Volume II (Paperback)

A mundane trilogy. See my review for The Horus Road, which applies to the other books as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars brilliaint, Jun 12 2003

By	Gehn Markhem (Freeport, IL) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Oasis: Lord of the Two Lands: Volume II (Paperback)

In this hefty volume, the author continues the story already begun with the Hippopatamus Marsh. Prince Kamose Tao of Weset assumes command of the rebel soldiers after his father's death, rallying the native princes to fight under him. Nubian soldiers from Wawat under the command of the General Hor-Aha are allied with the Egyptian soldiers, giving Kamose and his men an edge against the towns and forts they encounter on their trek north. As the campaign draws on, the effects of war leave their mark on Kamose, and he forfeits all else in order to oust the Setiu from beyond Egypt's borders and restore true Ma'at to this ravaged land. 'The Oasis' is a surprising stage for the unpredictable, and the inevitable.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a Great Read, Oct 20 2002

By	Janet L. Gomez "Enthusiast for the Past" (Byron, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Oasis (Gedge, Pauline, Lords of the Two Lands, V. 2.) (Hardcover)

The author's goal was to "rehab" Kamose Tao in history's eyes and she has indeed succeeded. The Lord of the Two Lands trilogy continues with the intensity and determination well established in the first book. Even though the story line is recorded in history, there is no real sense of predictability. Lots of action, repeated demonstrations of survival of the fittest, and treachery abounds. I thank Ms. Gedge for including a map, a bibliography, and for sating my thirst for historical fiction! I'll say a little prayer to Thoth that she continues to create such enjoyable works.
