Publisher: Month9Books
Jagger Jones is a whiz kid from Chicago’s South Side. Ask
him anything about Ancient Egypt, and Jagger can fill hours describing all that
he knows. But when he and his precocious little sister Aria fall more than
three thousand years back in time to the court of Amarna, Egypt, Jagger
discovers a truth that rocks his world: books don’t teach you everything there
is to know.
Mummies, pyramids, and cool hieroglyphics make awesome movie props, but the ancient
court of Amarna is full of over-sized scorpions, magical amulets, and evil
deities determined to scare unwanted visitors away. If Jagger and Aria are to
return safely home, they must find nine soul-infested gemstones, defeat an evil
general, save the royal family, and figure out how to rescue themselves!
Armed only with Jagger’s knowledge of history and a few modern objects mined
from his pockets and Aria’s sparkly purse, the siblings have exactly one week
to solve supernatural riddles and rescue the royal family. If they can pull it
off, Jagger Jones just might return to Chicago a hero.
