Qa'a

The First Dynasty, Book 3

By: Lester Picker

Narrated by: Adam Hanin

With the sudden death of his father, 16-year old Qa'a is thrust onto the throne, unprepared for rule. He is at the mercy of the cunning Chief Priest Khenemet and his evil disciple. A chance meeting with a successful trader, Nomti, creates a friendship that brings glory to the Two Lands.

But Qa'a's missteps bring the newly unified country to war. Unrest follows as the underground leaders of Lower Kem foment a rebellion that challenges King Qa'a's rule.

Will Qa'a recover from these setbacks and leave a legacy that future generations will praise? Or will his deep flaws tear The Two Lands apart once again?

Superb Storytelling With Egyptian Flavor

What I love kist about Lester Picker's delivery is his attempts to use probable phrases and expressions from the era. The story has a good sense of historicity, is compelling, and exciting. The best of the trilogy, I think.
