Award-winning novelist Gillian Bradshaws classic fantasy-history tale of Egypt and Nubia, now in one volume. Teen fisherman Prahotep is nicknamed bad-luck because everything he touches turns to disaster.

There he befriends a dying tomb-robber who tells him of unimaginable riches-and how to find them. Prahotep escapes the work crew but instead of finding the riches, he finds Lady Hathor, a proud, irritable dragon.Meanwhile, to the south, in Nubia, the princess Kandakis family is murdered by a usurper. Kandaki refuses the usurpers offer of marriage, and is sent north to be offered as a sacrifice to a swamp dragon.
