Khufu doesn't mean to cause chaos-he just happens to trip over sacred birds, knock over bread altars, and accidentally ignite religious festivals with alarming frequency.
He was supposed to be a boring village scribe. Instead, he's been marked by the gods as a Disruptor-an unwilling, unlucky, and hilariously unqualified agent of divine chaos. Now, with a sarcastic talking dung beetle as his guide, a judgmental camel with mysterious powers, and a target on his back from every bureaucrat and high priest in Thebes, Khufu finds himself on a ridiculous (and possibly holy) quest to save Egypt... by breaking it.
Haunted by mummies with legal complaints, mocked by talking pyramids, and reluctantly leading a rebellion of sacred misfits, Khufu must embrace his one true power: the ability to mess things up so badly that fate has no choice but to course-correct.
Because in a world of inflexible hierarchies and uptight rituals, maybe a little sacred nonsense is exactly what the gods need.
A wildly original absurdist fantasy set in a mythic Ancient Egypt, Pyramids Don't Dance (Until I Got Here) is part coming-of-age comedy, part cosmic satire, and all divine disaster.
