Egypt $12.99 The future of Egypt lies in the hands of chief detective Rahotep in this final installment of Nick Drake’s acclaimed ancient Egyptian trilogy. King Tutankhamun has died without an heir, and his young widow, Queen Ankhesenamun, last of her dynasty, struggles to maintain power and order. To defeat her enemies, she has but one hope: to forge an alliance with the Hittites, a powerful, militant new empire that threatens Egypt’s supremacy. The loyal Rahotep, chief detective of the Thebes Medjay—the ancient capital’s elite police force—and his friend, the royal envoy Nakht, are sent on a clandestine mission to the Hittite homeland, to persuade the king to agree to a marriage between one of his sons and Ankhesenamun—a union that would bring peace to the region and consolidate the queen’s power. Back in Egypt, the nefarious General Horemheb is poised to use his army to impose martial law and destroy the dynasty. But he is not the only enemy vying for control. A mysterious and brutal new opium cartel has emerged within the criminal underworld of Thebes, ready to take over the lucrative black market—and, ultimately, the very heart of the government. In this epic quest to the dark heart of the ancient world, Rahotep must also confront his own demons if he is to prevent the gathering forces of chaos from destroying Egypt’s greatest dynasty, and to return home in time to save his own family from the terror that threatens them all. Based on a true story and meticulously researched, Egypt: The Book of Chaos brings to life the ancient world and the cradle of civilization in a riveting, suspenseful finale to Nick Drake’s acclaimed trilogy.

Napoleon in Egypt $13.99 “Europe is a molehill….” Everything here is worn out…tiny Europe has not enough to offer. We must set off for the Orient; that is where all the greatest glory is to be achieved.” —Napoleon Napoleon’s invasion of Egypt was the first Western attack in modern times on a Middle Eastern country. In this remarkably rich and eminently readable historical account, acclaimed author Paul Strathern reconstructs a mission of conquest inspired by glory, executed in haste, and bound for disaster. In 1798, Napoleon Bonaparte, only twenty-eight, mounted the most audacious military campaign of his already spectacular career. With 335 ships, 40,000 soldiers, and a collection of scholars, artists, scientists, and inventors, he set sail for Egypt to establish an Eastern empire in emulation of Alexander the Great. Like everything Napoleon ever attempted, it was a plan marked by unquenchable ambition, heroic romanticism, and not a little madness. Napoleon saw himself as a liberator, freeing the Egyptians from the oppression of their Mameluke overlords. But while Napoleon thought his army would be welcomed as heroes, he tragically misunderstood Muslim culture and grossly overestimated the “gratitude” he could expect from those he’d come to save. Instead Napoleon and his men would face a grim war of attrition against an ad hoc army of Muslims led by the feared Murad Bey. Marching across seemingly endless deserts in the shadow of the pyramids, suffering extremes of heat and thirst, and pushed to the limits of human endurance, they would be plagued by mirages, suicides, and the constant threat of ambush. A crusade begun in honor and intended for glory would degenerate toward chaos and atrocity. But Napoleon’s grand failure in Egypt also yielded vast treasures of knowledge about a culture largely lost to the West, and through the recovery of artifacts like the Rosetta Stone, it prepared the way for the translation of hieroglyphics and modern Egyptology. And it tempered the complex leader who believed it his destiny to conquer the world. A story of war, adventure, politics, and a clash of cultures, Paul Strathern’s Napoleon in Egypt is history at once relevant and impossible to put down. From the Hardcover edition.

3 Budgeting Tips You Should Use

Plenty of people are looking for budgeting tips to help them out while the economy is rough and uncertain. Often, it is just the simple act of paying attention to where we spend our money that helps us the most. That's where budgeting comes in, and in this article we'll be looking at a few ways to manage your money more wisely.

Gas can be a serious drain on your budget, and the cost of filling up even the most economical vehicle just keeps rising. The best way to lower your expenses at the gas station is to drive less often, which is often a lot easier than it seems. Rather than making a few trips to the store for just one or two things, you should make a single trip for everything you need. You should just make one trip per week to get everything you need. If you commute to and from work, perhaps you can carpool or take another kind of transportation. In terms of traveling shorter distances, think about walking instead of driving or maybe using a bicycle or scooter instead of your car. Most people can save at least a few dollars each week on gas if they take time to think about it.

If you don't use coupons, you should consider starting. When used wisely, coupons can help you to save quite a bit of money on food and keep you within your budget. Try not to fall into the trap of buying things just because you've seen a coupon for them though. This means that you should definitely clip coupons but only for products that you buy regularly. Coupons are easy to find, and even the coupon books that are often sent to mailboxes every week can be helpful, but many people overlook them. While each one by itself doesn't seem very significant, if you use them every week, it can make a real difference in reducing your food budget.

A great way to reduce your food budget is to buy food in bulk and make your meals at home.

You probably already understand just how easily eating out can drain your food budget but you probably haven't thought much about how much things like deli foods, takeout and frozen dinners can run. When you make your foods from scratch you can save a lot of money, especially if you buy the foods in bulk. A few bags of rice, beans, grains and potatoes can last a long time. While buying things like dairy products, produce and meat in small quantities is still perfectly acceptable, buying the other ingredients in bulk can save you lots of money (and time shopping). In summary, there are many ways to budget your money more effectively. Once in a while it seems like a big sacrifice to cut back in places that you are accustomed to spending without worry, but it isn't that hard to adjust to a more frugal lifestyle. A lot of the time, the money you spend on things like your morning latte, is just done out of habit but once you get used to making your own, you won't have to feel as deprived. The budgeting tips outlined in this article will help you keep better track of your money and regain control of your finances.

12.21.12 $2.99 Archaeologist Sheppard Smyth has staked his career as well as the memory of his deceased wife and partner on proving his widely-panned theory: Cleopatra VII, the last ruler of Ancient Egypt, was murdered. When a statue of the doomed Queen is discovered in an Olmec excavation site, Smyth is drawn to Mexico to investigate and, hopefully, find the proof that has evaded him for so long. Soon, he finds himself in the middle of the rivalry between the sexy, bewitching international thief, Victoria Kent, and commanding, ruthless Russian mobster, Dmitri Kronastia.Both Dmitri and Victoria hold pieces to the puzzle that will finally shed light on Cleopatra’s death. As Shep is drawn further into their world of ancient gods, supernatural powers, and alternative history, little does he know that the fate of all—even humanity itself—may hinge on his ability to discover the truth among their fragmented claims. Working to decode the true past while attempting to save the future, Shep becomes a pawn in the hands of forces working out a quest older than the pyramids—a quest that may lead to the end of everything when it all comes together on 12.21.12.

At the time of their appearance the Empire of the Caliphate had vanished. What had once been a realm united under a sole Mohammadan ruler was now a collection of scattered dynasties, not one of which, save perhaps the Fatimids of Egypt (and they were schismatics) was capable of imperial sway. Spain and Africa, including the important province of Egypt, had long been lost to the Caliphs of Baghdad ; Northern Syria and Mesopotamia were in the hands of turbulent Arab chiefs, some of whom had founded dynasties; Persia was split up into the numerous governments of the Buwayhid princes (whose Shi'ite opinions left little respect for the puppet Caliphs of their time), or was held by sundry insignificant dynasts, each ready to attack the other, and thus contribute to the general weakness. The prevalence of schism increased the disunion of the various provinces of the vanished Empire. A drastic remedy was needed, and it was found in the invasion of the Turks. These rude nomads, unspoilt by town life and civilised indifference to religion, embraced Islam with all the fervour of their uncouth souls. They came to the rescue of a dying State, and revived it. They swarmed over Persia, Mesopotamia, Syria, andAsia Minor, devastating the country, and exterminating every dynasty that existed there ; and, as the result, they once more united Mohammadan Asia, from the western frontier of Afghanistan to the Mediterranean, under one sovereign ; they put a new life into the expiring zeal of the
