Two novellas, with the common theme of Ancient Egyptian sorcery.

In the second work, The Stellar Lode, is a small glass sphere into which, ages ago, was sealed the soul of a powerful Egyptian Queen. The sphere exerts a powerful talismanic effect on those into whose hands it passes, each possessor playing an unwitting part in an urgent cosmic drama, echoing roles which they had played ages past, plus four additional short stories/ 216 pages, Octavo.
