Driven by lost love, Neferure will discover a secret that threatens Egypt and the gods themselves.

Ramesses III, Egypt’s last great pharaoh, has saved the empire from countless incursions, but after many wars the kingdom is on the brink of bankruptcy. Labour strife, shifting allegiances, and now a deadly plague threaten to bring a close to Egypt’s Golden Age.

Amidst these troubles, a raging fire takes the life of the high priest of Karnak Temple. Neferure's love, Sahu, also dies in the flames, and she is convinced that their deaths were no accident. With the country divided, and none acknowledging the deaths as mysterious, Neferure alone hunts to uncover answers. What she will find is that a promise can defy death, and that a sinister plot threatens all of Egypt - one that reaches into the realm of the gods.

˃˃˃ For fans of mythology, fantasy, and ancient Egypt, or anyone who enjoys a unique tale.

Enter the heart of ancient Egypt, a world shaped by deities and magic. Journey through life and death, love and loss.

A blend of mythology and ordinary life from an iconic era.

I really loved this book. I as a little dubious at first, not really sure it would work out but as usual cats steal the book and it was perfect.
The action started more or less from the start and you get introduced to characters only when they are brought into the story so no pages of character background that isn't needed.
The characters who are mainly all cats living during the rein of Ramamses III and are facing a plague that starts by killing of the strays while the house cats remain safeish. The book opens with a burial and a former stray turned temple cat going back to been a stray while protecting a scroll, that indicates a ritual to replace the God Ra. Neferur a house cat and Sahu the disgraced temple cat then has to gather friends and foe in an effort to stop the God Apep from raising.
The storyline was well written and worked so well, at times you forget the characters are cats while been reminded just how revered they were in ancient Egypt.
There was one cat that so reminded me of mine. Headstrong and brave.
By the end I did shed a tear or two. It was just such a emotional book and being a cat lover made me love it all the more.
This was a great book.

Delightfully charming cat's tale set in ancient Egypt

2013年7月9日に英国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

Per-Bast is that rarity; historical fiction told from the perspective of an animal. In this case, our furry POV is a Theban cat, and the setting is ancient Egypt during the reign of Ramesses III. As a cat lover and someone who is fascinated by ancient Egypt, I picked this book up a few years ago but only just recently read it. The story moves at a fairly fast pace, and it works well in this novel since the plot is a blend of mystery and action. In such a genre, it's a good idea to keep the pace moving, and Stiegler makes sure it does that, with every scene contributing to the advancing plot, and no bloated bits. I wouldn't have actually minded just a little more background and scene setting though, since sometimes the action moves so fast that I wanted more time to soak up what was going on.

The cats of the story possess human levels of sentience, a delightful conceit to be able to tell the story from a cat's perspective. Later however, gods actually appear, characters get special powers and so on. I'm not a huge fan of historical fantasy, but as long as it's upfront about what it is and well-written, I can get on board. As long as it's not just plain silly. Per-Bast flirts with that a little, especially with the followers of Apep, who almost become one-dimensional villains, but it avoids it just, and thankfully the protagonists, for all the special powers they gain, go through genuine challenges and have actual flaws.

If you're a cat-lover, and you're interested in ancient Egypt to boot, Per-Bast is delightfully charming tale.

A time when magic was real

2014年11月27日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

and the Gods of Egypt interacted with mortals in the eternal battle between Chaos and Order. This book gives readers a glimpse of life in ancient Egypt. Life there was measured and dignified. Based on the yearly flooding of the Nile, life proceeded at the same pace each year with every action suited to its preordained time, a place for each person and each person knowing that place.
It was a culture of death. The land of the dead was more important than the land of the living because it lasted for eternity. The land of the living was only an opportunity to secure one's place in the land of the dead, whether as slave, farmer, craftsman, priest, Pharoah or cat. It really didn't matter what the place was, only that the place was secured by living a life of balance and order.
If a person failed to live a good life and lost that preordained place in the afterlife, not only did that soul wander in chaos for all eternity, but the afterlife itself was affected. Too many unoccupied places in the land of the dead impaired the greatness and glory of the afterlife. Because the afterlife and life were seen as mirrors of each other, any missing person (unoccupied place) in the afterlife directly affected life in the land of the living as well.
Entities judged wanting and expelled from the afterlife, manifested in life as disorders such as crime and war; individual sickness and plagues; disasters both natural, like storms and earthquakes, and civil, like fires and collapsing buildings. Life and death were intertwined and so were events in the land of the living and the land of the dead.
So take this journey into the very different mindset of the ancient Egyptians. Start slowly and ease your way into the strange names, the myriad of deities, the occurrences of rituals and sacrifices. As you gain knowledge, and the pace quickens, you will appreciate more surely the interweaving of natural and supernatural that allowed those people to believe that cats were messengers of the gods and cobras were instruments of divine justice. You will be able to experience ancient Egypt itself, where everyone only lived to die.
