Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Hanit the Enchantress" by Garrett Chatfield Pier is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story immerses readers in ancient Egyptian culture and mythology, revolving around the titular character Hanit, a queen embroiled in political intrigues and dark sorcery. The narrative begins with the discovery of ancient manuscripts that hint at magic and mystery, setting the stage for a tale woven with elements of romance, betrayal, and supernatural powers. At the start of the novel, the protagonist, Professor Steven Ranney, encounters an ancient manuscript that captivates him and his companions, including Mrs. Gardiner and Dr. Clem Gardiner. The manuscript reveals a contract involving the powerful secrets of the Luminous Book of Thoth, suggesting that the key to immense knowledge and power is tied to Hanit, the first wife of Pharaoh Amenhotep III. As the plot unfolds, the discovery of hidden tombs and the intertwining destinies of Hanit, her son Wazmes, and a host of other characters lead to a rich tapestry of suspense and drama, all under the watchful eyes of ancient Egyptian gods and the dark machinations of ambitious rivals.
