Scarab Descendant

All of the covers in this series are enough to make the pharaoh roll in their sarcophagi.

Scarab Descendant? By the image on the cover shouldn’t the title
be plural? Oh well, who cares anyway. It would still look stupid.

God, I did it again! Bizarre word placing. I guess it’s a good thing I don’t make book covers.

The name “Amarna” tickled some sort of memory, so I had to check – yes, the city was built by Akhenaten and abandoned soon after his death, so there was only ever one Amarnan King.

I also would not care to be called the descendant of a dung-beetle, no matter how holy they are.

Yeah, that would be like saying you’re a descendant of crap.

A more common appellation for a scarab is “dung beetle.”

Appropriate in this case…?

Just like on The Isis Stone, if the Papyrus font can’t even be used well on a book that’s about ancient Egypt, it’s pretty much hopeless.
