ramses the damned the passion of cleopatra hardcover

I wanted to see how much havoc was wreaked while they figured out who was going to be with who. I wanted to see if Ramses would man up and stop lusting after Cleopatra even while he was professing his love for Julie Stratford. I wanted to see how the two queens and Ramses would get on. She may be the only one who can make known to Ramses and Cleopatra the key to their immortality - and the secrets of the miraculous, unknowable, endless expanse of the universe. This is a figure who ruled over an ancient kingdom stretching from the once-fertile earth of the Sahara to the far corners of the world, a queen with a supreme knowledge of the deepest origins of the elixir of life.

But as these ancient rulers defy one another in their quest to understand the powers of the strange elixir, they are haunted by a mysterious presence even older and more powerful than they, a figure drawn forth from the mists of history who possesses spectacular magical potions and tonics eight millennia old. Ramses has reawakened Cleopatra with the same perilous elixir whose unworldly force brings the dead back to life. Now immortal with his bride-to-be, he is swept up in a fierce and deadly battle of wills and psyches against the once-great Queen Cleopatra. Ramses the Great, former pharaoh of Egypt, is reawakened by the elixir of life in Edwardian England. From the iconic and best-selling author of The Mummy and The Vampire Chronicles, a mesmerizing, glamorous new tale of ancient feuds and modern passions.
