Caesar is alone at night in the Egyptian desert, apostrophizing a statue of the Sphinx. Caesar is startled when a young girl, Cleopatra, addresses him from the paws of the Sphinx. He climbs up to her, thinking he is dreaming. She is full of superstitions about cats and Nile water.
She tells Caesar she is there because the Romans are coming to eat her people. Caesar sees that he is not dreaming and identifies himself to Cleopatra as a Roman. She is terror-stricken, but Caesar tells her that he will eat her unless she can show herself to him as a woman, not a girl. Cleopatra puts herself in the hands of this Roman and they move to her throne room. Caesar tries to persuade Cleopatra to act like a queen; Ftatateeta enters and begins to order Cleopatra about until the nurse is chased from the room. Caesar orders Cleopatra’s servants to dress her in her royal robes. When Roman soldiers enter and salute Caesar, Cleopatra finally realizes who he is, with a sob of relief, falls into his arms.
Murat Ukray, in previous years, began his writing journey with Science & Religious books (2006-2016) and continued with 7-8 works in the "Realistic Science Fiction" genre (which could be the first of its kind) (continuing between 2016 and 2026).
From this year (2026) onwards, along with this book, "The Infinity Worm (2025)," which he wrote last year, he transitioned to the "Speculative Science-fiction" genre, which could also be the first of its kind, and so with this book in your hands, he has written his first book in the speculative sci-fi and will continue this series the coming years.View all by George Bernard Shaw
