Cleopatra Curse

ADVENTURE AND MAGIC IN THE ANCIENT WORLD "I'm good enough! I know I am! Plenty of slave-boys start out driving chariots. And when they win, they earn their freedom." Zeuxis works as a lighthouse boy, collecting fuel for the famous Pharos lighthouse of Alexandria, but he dreams of becoming a charioteer. When Queen Cleopatra and her scheming brother, Prince Ptolemy, turn Zeuxis down, envoys of Julius Caesar give him the opportunity to race. But what are the Romans really after? And in the dangerous world of chariot racing, how will Zeuxis outwit an ancient demon, summoned to destroy all rivals and change the course of history?
