Stoned, Too E-BOOK

Our young protagonists from "Stoned" return for another Egyptian adventure, and yes, the Friends of the Stones are also along for the ride again. Readers of "Stoned" will recognize Rachel (Rock) Beane and Ned Peters as our twenty-something copy editors at Monolith Press on the Upper West Side of Manhattan...actually, readers of "Stoned" will recognize all of the characters, both stone and human in this sequel until "Stoned, Too" takes them somewhere dark: ancient Egyptian magic is afoot, as is the discovery of an ancient murder mystery: Tutenkhamun, the Boy King, did not meet an accidental death after all. He was murdered nearly thirty-four hundred years ago. Rock and Ned, who possess the unique and powerful skill of rock catalysts...meaning they can bring stones to life...are pulled into another adventure by the evil forces of the priests of Ptah. The Ptah priesthood still searches for the remains of the Heretic Pharaoh, Akhenaten. They are sworn to destroy his remains and to deface his tomb...including destroying any and all record of his having existed. This is how they will prevent him from existing in the Afterlife...or from ever returning to Earth. There is a basic flaw in their plan: Akhenaten lives. He has not returned from the Afterlife; he never died at all, but was preserved in a living stone sarcophagus until his revival in "Stoned." As Tutenkhamun's father, he is grief-stricken and outraged to learn of his son's final days...and is hell bent on discovering the murderers and extracting revenge. Join the team of young and old humans, and their friends, the living stones, as they confront the Ptah priesthood in this new fight, a fight not to the death, but rather for their lives.
