Knowing the Secret Name of Thoth, an equipped soul may pass unharmed through the airless abyss of illimitable depths, into a tale of ancient Egyptian sorcery.

Garrett Chatfield Pier's 1921 novel is an atmospheric lost-world fantasy steeped in the magic and mystery of pharaonic Egypt. Vivid, evocative period fantasy. Read it for a richly imagined adventure among the gods, spells, and hidden depths of the ancient Nile, from a genuine Egyptologist's pen.
