When Pharaoh Khufu dies, the kingdom looks to his chosen heir, Djedefre. But power never passes cleanly in the royal court of Egypt. With rivals in his own bloodline and unrest among the priesthood, Djedefre must secure his place before he loses it.
Choosing to break with tradition, he moves his tomb from Giza to Abu Rawash--a decision that angers the powerful cult of Ra and widens rifts within his family. As whispers of rebellion rise and loyalties shift, Djedefre must face betrayal not from enemies--but from those closest to him.
Djedefre is a richly layered entry in The Pyramid Builders series, offering a compelling look at a ruler whose reign may have been short, but whose choices changed the course of Egypt's Fourth Dynasty.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Djedefre becomes king, with his brother Hordjedef his principal adviser. Breaking with tradition, the king appoints Rait as his architect, gambling that she will be up to the task of building a pyramid. An earthquake damages the Sphinx, and is seen as an omen of the gods' disfavour, but the king makes a decision that might avert disaster, though many view it as added blasphemy. Concerned for the future, those close to the king plot to remove him.The king's heir is put aside, and a struggle for power breaks out, leading to deadly strife between the brothers Baka and Setka. Death and exile follow, with consequences that threaten Egypt's future. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781922548566
