Plot summary

The group lands on a world where Alexander the Great may have failed to overthrow ancient Egypt. As a result, pharaoh rule never fell in Egypt and much of the world are Egyptian colonies. Sliding is allowed, but only for those of royal blood. Doctors experiment with the afterlife and Quinn is an unwilling participant. The others must escape from a pyramid while being hunted by the large scarab beetle after missing the Slide.
