Death's Demonic Gates of Night

When Texas artist Tessa Pryce attends the "Ghouls & Glamour Girls" horror movie show, she awakens Butehamun, sorcerer-priest of Seth, Ancient Egypt's God of Chaos. If Butehamun passes the Underworld's demonic 12 Gates of Night, chaos will ravage the world for all eternity. To defeat Butehamun and the god Seth, Tessa must save Ancient Egyptian Pharaoh Amenhotep III from assassination. Wielding the magic Pen of Thoth, Tessa is aided by three unlikely companions: Prince Kaemwaset, son of Ramesses the Great: warrior, magician, healer, and priest of the sacred Apis bulls. Victorian captain Edmund Whitstoke, whose fianc? Sylvia was massacred in India's 1857 Great Mutiny. (Traumatized by her death, Whitstoke seeks to save Pharaoh Amenhotep's daughter, Princess Sitamun, from a forced, incestuous marriage with her father). Warrior dwarf Pyrnyankhu, survivor of the torture pits of Ancient Egypt's enemy, the Mittani. The companions pursue Butehamun from the Ancient Egyptian Underworld to modern Texas, and from India's 1857 Cawnpore Massacre to the brothels of Victorian London. Will the sorcerer Butehamun escape through the 12 Gates of Night of Ancient Egypt's Underworld? Will Seth, God of Chaos, triumph? Or will artist Tessa Pryce (thanks to royal Prince Kaemwaset & friends) prove that the magic Pen of Thoth-and love-is mightier than the sword?
