Wilbur Smith has earned international acclaim for
his bestselling River God, The Seventh Scroll, and Warlock.
Now, the unrivalled master of adventure returns with the
eagerly awaited sequel to his thrilling Egyptian series
with his most fantastic story yet. The Quest continues the
story of the Warlock, Taita, wise in the lore of the gods
and a master of magic and the supernatural.
Egypt has been struck by a series of terrible plagues,
killing its crops and crippling its people. Then the
ultimate disaster befalls the kingdom. The Nile fails. The
waters that nourish and sustain the land dry up.
Something catastrophic is taking place in the distant and
totally unexplored depths of Africa, from where the mighty
river springs. In desperation the Pharaoh sends Taita, the
only man who might be able to find his way through the
hazardous territory to the source of the Nile and discover
the cause of all their woes. But not even Taita can have
any idea of what a terrible enemy waits in ambush in those
dark lands at the end of their world.
No other author can conjure up the violence and mystery of
Ancient Egypt like Wilbur Smith. The Quest marks his
stirring return to the acclaimed series and proves once
again why fans such as Stephen King praise him as the
world’s “best historical novelist.”
