This time Dorkius is accompanying Caesar to Egypt to negotiate with the pharaoh for the return of money owed to Rome. But the boy pharaoh proves to be a tricky character, with a wind problem.

Can Dorkius battle through camel-sickness and his own natural ability to mess things up to get results for Rome and be assured of his heroic status?
