Tutankhamen Returns!

In 1922, with the economic support of Lord Carnarvon, British Archaeologist Howard Carter discovered the tomb of Tutankhamen.

In 2022, Canadian author Sal Godoij takes the reader on time travel journeying through an extraordinary experience: the life and death of Pharaoh Tutankhamen. He does onboard this special deluxe edition written and designed to commemorate the one hundred years of the discovery of Tutankhamen’s tomb.

Yet, unbeknownst to Howard Carter and associates, the tomb’s opening and the dismantling of its treasure unleashed a series of events, impossible for anyone modern human to foresee or control.

Because it was then that Tutankhamen returned!

And it is then that we can see the other side of this story that brought glory to one but distress to another, undisturbed in his resting place for more than 3.333 years.

And we learn that feelings do not die with the body, as memories do not fade with time. The Ancient Egyptians knew this well. They knew all that concerned with this characteristic of the soul. Indeed, they knew well about feelings and memories, for this was the purpose of the mummy, why they wrapped the body. Because the emotions were kept alive in the body, and memories were kept warm among the mummy’s wrappings.

And this was one thing that neither Lord Carnarvon nor Mr. Howard Carter ever knew—that the family placed the body to rest inside the sarcophagus so that the soul was set free to roam the beyond, thus fulfilling the Gods’ design for it. But then, Howard Carter’s team opened the sarcophagus and dislodged the mummy from its golden coffin, removed the wrappings, and the body was set naked under obscene eyes. Then, Tutankhamen’s soul returned to the body, as a butterfly would do to the cocoon that protected her when it was a chrysalis. And nobody knew that the mummy was the cocoon, and the soul was the butterfly that, with soundless, invisible, iridescent fluttering, kept the feelings alive; memories intact stirring revenge.
