The story follows Odysseus on a second return voyage that brings him to a mysteriously silent isle and into the orbit of an alluring, many‑faced woman whose uncanny powers unsettle courts and prophets in an Egyptian milieu. Structured in three parts, the narrative interweaves sea‑voyage adventure, prophetic visions, sorcery, resurrections, and epic combat, tracing rivalries between rulers and the spiritual consequences of obsessive beauty. The authors blend classical legend with northern and eastern fable, alternating intimate encounters and psychological motives with large mythic set pieces to examine desire, destiny, and the persistence of ancient belief.
