«Les enfants du soleil» is the historical novel by Pauline Gedge published by Rouge et Or in hardcover (366 pages, in French).
In eighteenth-dynasty Egypt, Pharaoh Akhenaten promotes the exclusive worship of Aten, the sun god, with the support of Nefertiti. Akhenaten builds a new city in the desert, but his weak character and diplomatic clumsiness sink the kingdom, while his mother, Empress Tiye, tries to prevent the collapse.
The original English novel was published in 1984 under the title 'The Twelfth Transforming'; the French translation is by Anne Laflaquière.
For readers of historical fiction interested in eighteenth-dynasty Egypt and figures such as Akhenaten, Nefertiti, and Tiye.
