Good Book

"The Conspiracy of Evil" by "Christian Jacq" is worthy of being in any fiction reader's collection. The main story in this book revolves around the following characters: "Sensuret i.e. portrayed as the pharaoh of Egypt", "Iker - An ambitious young scribe from "Madu" which is a province in Egypt, "Isis" - A young and charming priestess who is learning the Mysteries of Osiris at "Abdyos". The other characters are "Medes" - A corrupt official who wants to overthrow the pharaoh and rule Egypt by himself and last but not the least "The Herald" - A powerful and ruthless man who is a devoted follower of "Set" - In Egyptian mythology this god murdered Osirs who was the ruler of Egypt. The Herald is intent on overthrowing the pharaoh and in order to achieve this he plans to foment unrest among the people of Egypt, which would result in a rebellion and even puts a curse on "The Tree of Life" so that "Osiris" cannot be reincarnated. This is the main plot around which the story revolves. In my opinion this is a good book and the author has ensured that the reader remains spellbound and cannot leave the book until he has finished it.
