Nine Bows
Professor Robert Cooper, Egyptologist, is transported from London, England 2010, to Ancient Egypt Eighteenth Dynasty, 1334-1335 BC. The Professor has a serious car accident at precisely the same time that Pharaoh Tutankhamun, is murdered by a servant of General Horemheb, and the essence of the Professor enters the body of the King, at the same time as Tutankhamun’s soul is leaving his body, for the afterlife. This miracle is brought about by the actions of the three main Gods of Ancient Egypt, Amun, Ptah, and Neith, who want ten more years of productive life from Tutankhamun, for the benefit of Ancient Egypt, after his father King Akhenaten almost sent the country into total ruin. The gods have chosen the Professor, because he has made twenty trips to Modern Egypt over his working life, and they are aware of him, plus he has a very strong love of all things Egyptian, and as an Egyptologist at the British Museum has a very in depth knowledge of all things Egyptian, Modern and Ancient. After his accident Robert Cooper wakes up in Tutankhamun’s body in about 1325 BC, with the knowledge he is Robert Cooper, and is told by the Egyptian Gods, that he is required to assist them in giving Egypt another ten years of King Tutankhamun’s life span. He has many adventures during the ten year period (Ancient Egyptian time), which equals about six months in his own century, where he lays in ICU in a London Hospital in a deep coma. With his vast knowledge of Ancient Egypt, he is one of the few men on earth that could pull it off. But the thing that most impresses Egypt’s old Gods is his almighty love for Ancient Egypt. The people who murdered the real Tutankhamun, are given the same treatment by Robert Cooper-King Tutankhamumn, which is very satisfying. As the years go by, he learns to be a good and able King, with a number of very good friends assisting him. He fights wars, makes love to many women, and extricates himself from many problems that occur to ruling Kings over Ancient Egypt’s history. Soon Robert finds the two personalities beginning to merge into each other, and as the time goes by, he starts to feel like he is in fact King Tutankhamun. However, he cannot stay in the past forever and soon he must leave all his friends to return to his own time, but finds on returning that he has inherited a title and lands that give him a margin of power and money that he had in Ancient Egypt as King Tutankhamun…However, after being pharaoh and experiencing the power and glory that came with the title, can he readjust to his own time?
