Spell Bound (A Fairy Retelling #3) - Plot & Excerpts
Aniya asks. Endless dunes of sand continue as far as the eye can see, broken only by the meandering waters of the black Nile, and in the distance, a lone mountain. “Finally,” Amun-Ra exclaims with a sound of relief, “the Hall of the gods.” Aniya looks again. What she took for a mountain is actually a palace so tall she can’t distinguish the top of it from the pink haze of the sunless sky. “It’s just after noon. I was afraid our run-in with Apophis would set us far behind.” “How can you tell? There’s no sun,” Aniya remarks. Amun-Ra looks at her and laughs, “I am the sun!” He directs the oarsmen to make for shore and the boat comes to a stop nestled against the bank of the river. The palace is still far off. Aniya can’t begin to guess how long they will need to walk to reach it. The loading ramp is lowered down to the bank and the grizzled sun god holds his hand out to the young queen.
