"Al-Khidr, a medieval alchemist, is awestruck when he discovers a mysterious metallic sphere inside a pyramid. His curiosity catapults him through space and time to an alien planet called Lyra, where he learns that aliens consider Earth a cursed planet, and the pyramids on Earth were built by them. The queen wants to send the human back to Earth to bring a cure to the Mutmut disease. But a rebellion breaks out! With danger looming, a short time frame, and his life on the line, Al-Khidr has to do what he thinks is right and just." -- Back cover.
