Ramses the Damned: The Passion of Cleopatra by Anne Rice

Ramses the Great, former pharaoh of Egypt, is reawakened by the elixir of lifestyles in Edwardian England. Now immortal together along with his bride-to-be, he’s swept up in a fierce and deadly war of wills and psyches towards the once-exquisite Queen Cleopatra.

Ramses has reawakened Cleopatra with the identical perilous elixir whose unworldly pressure brings the dead again to life. But as those historical rulers defy one another in their quest to apprehend the powers of the strange elixir, they are haunted by a mysterious presence even older and more effective than they, a figure drew forth from the mists of records who possesses remarkable magical potions and tonics 8 millennia old.

This is a figure who dominated over a historical country stretching from the once-fertile earth of the Sahara to the long way corners of the world, a queen with excellent information about the innermost origins of the elixir of lifestyles. She can be the handiest person who could make regarded Ramses and Cleopatra the important thing to their immortality—and the secrets and techniques of the miraculous, unknowable, limitless expanse of the universe.
