The Adventures of Anubis

By Elvin Griffith

The creation of this book was inspired by my favorite author Rick Riordan. When Anubis was a young boy he was trained to be nothing more or less than perfect. In this adventure Anubis gets the opportunity of a lifetime, to save the world from destruction. This book is full of hilarious jokes, all told by the Lord Of The Dead. In this nonstop action thriller Anubis realizes his potential to become one of the most powerful gods in Egyptian history. Those of you who are Greek Mythology fans like myself will enjoy this book because not only are the Egyptian gods going to be here the Greeks are coming as well. Trust me when the Greeks are here the party begins.

CHAPTER ONE

THE PAST AND THE FUTURE

Hello my name is Anubis most address me as the god of the dead, but you can address me as Anubis. There are many tales of my life; some say I killed king Tutankhamen. This is a lie he was killed by one of my hounds. So lets cut to the chase evil is slowly rising the only hope the world has is my brother Horus and I.

Our quest has led us to the under world where my brother Osiris has decided to help.

Welcome to the catacombs brothers, we are directly beneath the great pyramid. How are we supposed to enter Horus asked curiously? We must defeat the Guard Cerberus Osiris said. We just have to use the staff of destruction. Oh I forgot father didn’t let you have any of the golden weapons. We need to fix that situation. Osiris whipped up a portal to a cave in Greece. The first golden weapon is inside there. Anubis this is straight up your alley said Osiris.

Let me be the first to tell you fighting a Greek monster is ridiculously impossible. To get the staff of destruction I had to destroy a shabti of the Greek god Zeus. When someone throws a lightning bolt at you, run for your life. Since I was immortal they couldn’t kill me, but they could injure me greatly. I was dodging for my life when suddenly I unleashed an attack. Since I was the god of death black hieroglyphics floated on my palm. Slash, and the shabti shattered into pieces of black
