Features: The Curse of the Pharaoh is the bestselling work of the Hallberlin couple. Upon its publication in 1999, it quickly won the affection of teenagers in Germany and around the world. The book features a plot that is wonderfully bizarre and full of suspense from start to finish, leaving readers breathless. Pharaoh Akhenaten of Egypt was ambushed by his rebel general Ay, with all his guards killed, and was stabbed to death by Ay. At his dying moment, the pharaoh cursed Ay. Three thousand three hundred years later, when the stars returned to their original positions, the pharaoh's curse was to be fulfilled, and Egypt would face great disaster. That same year, strange events began to surround 15-year-old German boy Atun. To uncover the truth, he bravely ventured into the secret chambers beneath the pyramids, the underground rivers, and the temple of the divine cat, entering the hidden tomb of Pharaoh Akhenaten in the Valley of the Kings to search for the eerie tunnel he had repeatedly seen in his dreams. There, he discovered something—apparently, he had already died here! He was the very person the pharaoh had foretold would bring his curse to pass! So, who was the traitor Ay now? How could the pharaoh's curse be fulfilled through Atun's hands? Could fate be changed? Atun made an incredible choice.
