«Les enfants du soleil» is the historical novel by Pauline Gedge, published by Balland in 1985 in paperback (366 pages, in French).
In the Egypt of the Eighteenth Dynasty, Amenophis IV renames himself Akhenaten, «spirit of Aten», and with Nefertiti and his mother Tiy imposes the cult of the sun god, abandons Thebes and founds a new capital. Shut away in his palace, oblivious to revolts and droughts, his reign descends into excesses, intrigues and mysteries of power.
French translation, signed by Anne Laflaquière, of the original novel «The Twelfth Transforming» (1984).
For readers of historical fiction interested in ancient Egypt and the figures of Akhenaten and Nefertiti.
