When seventeen-year-old Lilliana Young enters the Metropolitan Museum of Art one morning during spring break, the last thing she expects to find is a live Egyptian prince with godlike powers, who has been reawakened after a thousand years of mummification.
And she really can't imagine being chosen to aid him in an epic quest that will lead them across the globe to find his brothers and complete a grand ceremony that will save mankind.
But fate has taken hold of Lily, and she, along with her sun prince, Amon, must travel to the Valley of the Kings, raise his brothers, and stop an evil, shape-shifting god named Seth from taking over the world.
From New York Times bestselling author Colleen Houck comes an epic adventure about two star-crossed teens who must battle mythical forces and ancient curses on a journey with more twists and turns than the Nile itself.
3 Reasons You Should Read
Reawakened by Colleen Houck
- Are you a mythology fan? We are! We love a good mythological story and Egyptian mythology is right up our alley.
- When we first read the description of the book we couldn’t help but think that it sounded a little “Night at the Museum”-ish. That has us very excited to get our hands on a copy.
- Alright, we know we are not supposed to judge books by their covers, but sometimes we just can’t help it. Look at this cover! If that alone doesn’t make you want to read it, we don’t know what will. It is amazing!
