«Los Misterios de Osiris 1: El árbol de la vida» is the historical novel by Christian Jacq, published by Planeta in paperback (439 pages, in Spanish).
In the temple of Abydos, the acacia born from Osiris's tomb begins to wither; if it dies, Egypt is in danger. Maleficent powers scheme in the shadows, Pharaoh Sesostris III wages a magical battle against an invisible enemy, and the scribe apprentice Iker becomes a key piece of the mystery.
First installment of the tetralogy «Los Misterios de Osiris», published in Spanish in 2005; the French original, «L'arbre de vie», is from 2003 and the translation is by Manuel Serrat Crespo.
For readers of historical and adventure novels set in ancient Egypt, especially those who want to start the saga.
Christian Jacq is a French author and Egyptologist. He has written several novels about ancient Egypt, notably a five book series about pharaoh Ramses II, a character whom Jacq admires greatly.
