«Los dioses guardianes» is the historical novel by Barbara Wood, published by Grijalbo Mondadori in paperback (304 pages, in Spanish).
The novel alternates between Egypt thirty-three centuries ago and present-day California: Pharaoh Akhenaten imposes a monotheistic cult and moves the capital to Tell el Amarna; in the present, Egyptologist Mark Davison investigates a diary about an expedition to Amarna that ended in disaster, perhaps due to a curse linked to an unnamed tomb.
The work was originally published in English as The Watch Gods in 1981; this Spanish edition is from 1996.
Recommended for readers of historical and suspense fiction, with a plot connecting Ancient Egypt with present-day California.
Barbara Wood is a writer of historical romance novels. She and her family moved to California, where she grew up. In 2002, she received the Corine Literature Prize.
