  The Ultimate Vice by A. Bertram Chandler - Hallam wanted to get out of space – but even more he wanted to make a fortune first. Now he had found a way to do it – by selling – The Ultimate Vice. 
  A. Bertram Chandler (1912-1984) was an Australian science fiction author best known for his extensive John Grimes series, set in the Rim World universe. Chandler’s career as a merchant marine officer deeply influenced his writing, infusing his stories with authentic nautical and spacefaring details. He explored themes of exploration, isolation, and the human condition in the vastness of space. Chandler’s protagonists, particularly Grimes, are often depicted as pragmatic, resourceful, and somewhat rebellious figures navigating the complexities of interstellar bureaucracy and the challenges of frontier life. His works blend adventure, hard science fiction, and social commentary, often reflecting his fascination with alternative realities and parallel universes. Chandler’s storytelling is marked by a sense of wonder and a deep respect for the exploratory spirit. Although not as widely recognized as some of his contemporaries, his contributions to the genre have earned him a dedicated following.

  Casey and Kiley think they’re heading out for an ordinary walk in the woods - until Tuttle, their bright blue metallic bird friend, calls them into another mission. One step through his glowing portal sends them tumbling into the scorching sands of ancient Egypt, where a young boy named Akhom is hiding from the very people who should be protecting him. Declared dead and left to perish in the desert, Akhom reveals that he is the rightful Pharaoh, overthrown by the High Priest who has seized the throne. Determined to help their new friend, the siblings battle sandstorms, outsmart hungry crocodiles, and sneak beneath a palace guarded by giant tiger fish. Danger shadows their every move, yet the journey pulls them deeper into a world filled with temples, secret tunnels, and a kingdom struggling for its future. 
  But the true mystery begins when Casey and Kiley discover a chamber forbidden to all Egyptians, holding a secret that rewrites everything known about the ancient world. Inside waits an alien who has shaped Egypt’s most iconic wonders for more than a thousand years - and holds the key to uncovering what happened to Akhom’s missing parents. With time running out and the fate of an entire kingdom in their hands, Casey, Kiley, and Tuttle must work together to expose the truth, confront a power-hungry usurper, and restore the Pharaoh to his throne. Sweeping, vivid, and full of heart-pounding twists, this adventure blends history, mystery, and cosmic wonder into a journey young listeners won’t forget.
