Apophis, the serpent of Chaos, threatens eternal darkness.

To find it, they must trust a murderous ghost of a powerful magician who may lead them to it or to death in the Underworld.
It is the third volume of the The Kane Chronicles saga, published in 2014.
For readers aged 12 and up interested in mythological fantasy and young adult adventures.
