Both Aston and Grant have a talent for finding trouble—it's what landed them at the Stanton School for Boys—but this time, their mischief might send them to a completely different world.

When they accidentally destroy their teacher's priceless archaeological artifacts, he demands they replace them. And since the teacher in question is Merlin, refusing isn't an option for the two boys. Thanks to Merlin's magic, they're about to become time travelers.

The first piece on their list is the Eye of Ra, a mystical amulet belonging to the young King Tut. Ancient Egypt is nothing like Aston and Grant expected, with its war, disease, and lack of modern technology. To survive, they must befriend King Tut and learn to trust him—and each other. In a primitive world, where death and danger wait around every corner, one thing is clear: revisiting history could cost someone their life.
