The Ancient Allan by H. Rider Haggard
"The Ancient Allan" by H. Rider Haggard is a novel featuring the hunter Allan Quatermain. When Quatermain and Lady Ragnall inhale Taduki, a drug inducing visions of past lives, they experience ancient incarnations in Persian-ruled Egypt. Quatermain relives his existence as Egyptian aristocrat Shabaka during a revolt against Persian domination, while familiar characters reappear in different forms. This adventure blends historical romance with fantastical elements of reincarnation, telepathy, and Egyptian mysticism, suggesting
the goddess Isis's curse follows characters through successive lifetimes. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
