Delusions of Anubis

by C. R. Turner

Overview

Kyle and his parents have recently moved back to America after four years in Cairo when tragedy strikes. Already struggling to readjust, Kyle's mother's death tears his world apart, the anguish and despair further straining his already tense relationship with his father. Soon, he begins having visions of himself in the Underworld—the Duat—in which he is Anubis, the Egyptian god of embalming.

The delusions are frightening at first, but soon, he is going out of his way to induce them. Through Anubis's eyes, he bears witness to the nightly passage of Ra, the sun god, and joins his entourage as they travel from west to east. The journey is fraught with danger, with many demons hell-bent on preventing Ra from being reborn at dawn. While Anubis must protect him, he is also tasked with preparing a new soul for her judgment as he ushers her to the Hall of the Two Truths.

Both Kyle and Anubis's paths are difficult, and in time Kyle will learn that death is just the beginning. But until then, he must also learn to fight the darkness within.
