Secrets of a Sun King competition
London, 1922
A discovery from ancient Egypt…
A cursed package…
The untold story of a young pharaoh…
When Lilian Kaye finds a parcel on her grandad’s doorstep, she is shocked to see who sent it: a famous Egyptologist, found dead that very morning, according to every newspaper in England!
The mysterious package holds the key to a story… about a king whose tomb archaeologists are desperately hunting for.
Lil and her friends must embark on an incredible journey – to return the package to its resting place, to protect those they love, and to break the deadly pharaoh’s curse…
To celebrate the release of this brilliant book, Faber and Faber have a fun competition for you to enter.
How to Enter
In Secrets of a Sun King, Lil receives a mysterious package; a jar which holds secrets – and maybe a curse!
Illustrate the jar with clues as to what could be inside with an ornate design, fit to go inside a pharaoh’s tomb.
