Sekhemkhet inherits not just the throne, but the heavy expectations of following Pharaoh Djoser's revolutionary rule. Yet with a reign that history records as brief and clouded by uncertainty, his time in power becomes a struggle for legitimacy and control.

Amid court tension, military unrest, and the weight of his predecessor's monumental achievements, Sekhemkhet must carve his own legacy. But with dissent on the rise and construction of his own pyramid faltering, time is against him.

Rich with historically informed detail, Sekhemkhet continues The Pyramid Builders series with a vivid portrayal of a king whose ambition burned brightly--but briefly--in the shadow of greatness.
